This one could work if there's only one toilet in the restroom. Restroom's on the right. Hah.

"Restroom's on the right."
People talk this way informally sometimes, but it is not correct for written English.
Probably some of the source of the apparent mass confusion, I suppose.

Hi, I live in Worcester, England and I am preparing to teach a lesson on the correct use of the apostrophe. I wanted to include a few images of incorrect uses in my powerpoint presentation and this one caught my eye.
Please let me know if you would allow me to copy your photograph.
Thanks very much

Hi Kathryn –
Feel free to use the photo, as long as there's a link or "courtesy" statement somewhere in the presentation.
