RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted November 18, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 18, 2020 I recall Peter West, rugby union commentator in the 60s for BBC who also presented Come Dancing and It's a Knockout, and who had often clearly had an extensive and extended liquid lunch, coming out with some howlers, the best of which was at the end of a game when he asserted that the referee had just blown up in the middle of the field... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold SHMD Posted November 18, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 18, 2020 UK Speed signs are a maximum Limit (OR a minimum limit in some cases) not a target! Both the above examples seem such a waste of a signage though. Kev. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatB Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 A horrifyingly long time ago, Dad and I used to spectate at Vintage Sports Car Club race meetings, and I remember the commentary over the tannoy being by a pair of genial old buffers. You could practically hear the level in the gin bottle falling over the course of the afternoon . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a legal requirement, when leaving a restricted zone. What those signs are actually doing is cancelling the restriction on the other side of the sign. They say nothing about what happens beyond them. I suspect the pier is a private road, and no legal limit applies. But they do look funny, if you are a driver.

The de-restricted part is a single file, two hundred yard dead end. I do sometimes wonder if the highways department gets a bonus for each sign they put up.

So dog walkers finding dead bodies isn't just a murder mystery cliche after all. steve 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
