00:50 Signs with punctuation are confusing our computer systems so they're set to be scrapped.
00:57 Do you enjoy a bit of grammar policing?
01:00 Well if you do or you're very keen on crossing your t's, dotting your i's,
01:05 you may be disturbed to see a new road sign in Harrogate where North Yorkshire Council
