Ages 0 to 6. HTH.
I was complaining about the apostrophe catastrophe.
I'm probably going to get whooshed for whooshing you, but WHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH
In the 60s and 70s (or should it be the 60's or 70's) it was widely accepted that an apostrophe could be used after a number, and many people were taught that this was correct - I know I was.
So whilst it's gone out of fashion now, many would suggest that ther'es nothing wrong with "Under 7's" - and I'm not going to condemn it as wrong.
