Pretty odd contraction seeing as it has the same number of symbols ... just a space between them πŸ™‚

But also legitimate as the possesive of whatever the it is.

Unfortunately not Nick! smile Probably the only occasion when it is not possessive.

"It's is a contraction and should be used where a sentence would normally read "it is." The apostrophe indicates that part of a word has been removed. Its with no apostrophe, on the other hand, is the possessive word, like "his" and "her," for nouns without gender."

Humour, thread drift and education! I didn't know that Graham, many thanks
Nick

Alistair, I refer to those who, for example, insist on putting " 's" (e.g. car's) rather than just adding an "s" to the end of a word (e.g. cars - which is the plural of car).
Just as bad are those that add 's, instead of the correct "ies", e.g. universities (correct, but they write university's - which means belong to a university).
Things that were drummed into me during school English lessons (and by my folks smile ).
