    Yes it would because "stock" is both singular and plural ... and it gets more funner than that, how about ...
    The farmer's daughter's knickers
    The farmer's daughters' knickers
    The farmers' daughter's knickers
    The farmers' daughters' knickers

    Although we tend not to use the trailing apostrophe. The possessive pronouns are mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs so they don't need the apostrophe

    I AM working .... honest

    Apparently true! More people fall off horses than motorbikes - according to ACC stats

    Ahhh, but do ACC endorse the widely held belief that one must immediately re-mount said horse after suffering a calamitous un-seating?

    Or perhaps restrict you to a shetland pony until you're over 17?

    Good idea! Personally I got vertigo on anything over 15 hands. 17 hands is a big horse!

    Just so we're still on topic, I'd say the grammar and punctuation in the last few posts, were pretty good...
