Silly Signs

[Boppawombat]

High Wycombe. Bit harsh on the local ladies, don't you think?

Ha ha ha.... I like that one!

You'll need a brick to smash the window...

I am sure most mother-in-laws would quite like their own room...

In Lincoln a few years ago we had a spate of silly signs being stuck over bus stop signs. They looked well made and said things like ' bat stop' with a pic of the batmobile. I'll see if I can look out the pictures I took at the time.

Happens to Bateman Street in Cambridge a lot as well. My mother would vehemently deny that anyone from her old school (on Bateman Street) has anything to do with it.

I know some of you know about these pictures but they still make me chuckle.

Genuine display at Moorgate.

What a con they really are

I remember seeing that one - how right that board is!

Officer Crabtree left in charge of the signs, I see.

I don't really get what is wrong with that

Everyone seems to ignore these signs on the underground as well.

Most people I see on the escallators are not carrying a dog

No, there are a team of people around specially to ensure this rule is followed!

I wonder if I could have got away with carrying any of my ex-girlfriends as all of them are right bitches

Awh but its cute!

While I don't have a picture of it, Lothian Buses' marketing dept had a filthy streak when they created a night buses poster a few years back, which showed a basic image of a young couple (like the generic loo symbols) waiting at a bus stop, with the tagline "It'll be the cheapest ride you'll get home tonight".
Reading between the lines, it may have innocently meant "we're cheaper than a taxi" or "You won't pay nearly as much as you did on drinks for your female accomplice tonight"

I think FCC's reputation proceeds them. The shorthand 'Con' speaks volumes of truth.

Had to laugh at that comment, best thing ive heard all week.

Almost - An R has been missed out of the train company's name. :roll:

Spotted this one several years ago in Thackthwwaite, Cumbria.

 

[Wyvern]

We spent several miles looking out for giant onions bouncing down the road but didnt see any. All because of a sign saying "Heavy Plant Crossing."

If only sign makers knew how to use commas

I'd hope grey squirrels were expected to drive slowly too.

Well, I tend to find it's very true that pedestrians crossing will be doing so very slowly!
