Well, it shouldn't be called Robber's Retreat if it had more than one robber,
since the s in robber's is only there to show possesion of the retreat by the
robber.. If it had more than one robber, it should be Robbers' Retreat, since
the when having possesion by a plural, the appostrophe goes after the s.

Well, TLC are ESLers like me so they should be given a break ;-) I'm not really given one ('specially not in english class!) but heck, let's be nice - maybe they'll decide to return a favor and rerelease Guarded Inn ;-) -Shiri FUT .o-t.fun (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
