Within the first few words of the site, you have "lover's". Whose lovers? The apostrophe makes it possessive. It should be "lovers". There are more than one of them (you hope) and no possession should be implied.

Nice one horney. I too am fanatical about the apostrophe 's' when it denotes possession. It confuses many people. There is one great rule to remember: The apostrophe denotes ownership/possession. Put the apostrophe AFTER the owner/possessor.
Thus: one lover owns some wine: the lover's wine; but several lovers own some wine: the lovers' wine.

Nice site by the way, BigVikingAl!
