RMweb Premium melmerby Posted January 11, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 11, 2015 That's the Pound Shop trick. Items priced at £1 look like a bargain, but actually work out more expensive than the same item bought in differing weight/quantity/packaging in other stores. . There quite often seem to be items in special weight packs to bring them down to a £1 per pack Thorntons sweets come to mind, in pack sizes you don't see in Thorntons shops!

edward66 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Somewhere in New England [no photo I'm afraid] at the entry to a cul de sac bordering a cemetery the sign DEAD END. Have to add that DEAD END is a common equivalent to cul de sac in the USA, they don't do French! Edward Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG John Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 There's a recently installed post just down the road from me, with nothing attached to it. Was it one that was put up in the wrong place by the contractors setting up the new speed limit, and left there? Or am I unwittingly committing some heinous offence every time I pass it?

RMweb Premium kevinlms Posted April 16, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Seriously? I've seen similar signs, but its of a fold down construction and its clear that it serves an entirely different function. On Phillip Island, where they have the Motorcycle Grand Prix annually and the traffic flows are modified. Edit to add. Here's an example, with the blue line visible. https://www.flickr.com/photos/legoblock/5969037200/ Edited April 17, 2015 by kevinlms Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
