It's simple!

nouns = no apostrophe (tables, videos etc.)
singular possesives = apostrophe before s (the man's trousers)
plural possesives = apostrophe after s (the four cats' beds)
collective possesives = apostrophe before s (the children's toys, the men's trousers)

I see abuse everywhere eg. carrot's 30p, childrens' section. Grrr!

Like the "B" in climbing, and "K" in knife, and "H" in diarrhea (not to mention the extra "R")?

Did someone just thought "let's chuck in a few extra letters to make the word look a bit more interesting"?
