    Simple spelling question

    How do you spell "Gards" ie short for Gardai?

    I got pulled up for this, but my critic failed to mention how to spell it.
    No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones
    In 1977

    I think it would be guards (as in the English of gardai rather than a shortened version) Anal ***** who ever pulled you up on it though
