Hi all,

Um, that's what I've been saying all along, I was going to allow this to become a moot point, as Susan had so deftly pointed out, but since Lynne looked it up, and she *has* the grammatical text to back up her assertion, I've got to thank her for supporting my views and for giving evidence, hard, cold, written evidence in black and white or blue and white as the case may be. <smiling. The community service, a noun belongs to the hours. I think I may have misphrased my assertion, but the hours possess Community Service it's what they are devoted to or given to. Yeh, it's weird, but it is correct. The apostrophe is correct just where it was placed by the editor of the book. So there!

Ann P.
