It refers to a period of time equivalent to how long donkeys live. So it is not in reference to one donkey.
Had it been a specific donkey it would be donkey's years.
But as it applies to donkeys in general it is donkeys' years.

I noticed that Whitehill / Bordon have been classified ecotowns.
Has anyone else been to Bordon? As we used to say about Dornoch, "it's not the end of the world, but you can see it from there".Comment

Bordon? Where the squaddies live? Near Aldershot?Originally posted by Menelaus View Post
I was last there circa 1985 for the wedding of a school friend.
Stay at home in the tulip hole that is Bordon or go to a war zone to be shot at? War zone, every time.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment
