RMweb Premium melmerby Posted June 20, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 20, 2014 No photo I'm afraid, but in Birmingham some wag has altered the road name sign "REA ST" by putting a "B" at the front and a "S" at the end! Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundy Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) While in the United States, I saw a sign (but was unable to get a photo) which read SOD WORK It does, of course, mean "we are available to look after the turf on your lawn" (whatever users of the Oxford English Dictionary may think).

Ozexpatriate Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) I was wondering about "Small Misty Pieces of Fish" and "Sun's Meat" but then decided to eat elsewhere after reading the very first item on the menu ...... The first item sounds like a McDonald's menu item - or it would be if it were file de piexe. Fun with Google translate: isca de piexe = bait fish. Mmmmm bait.

RMweb Premium Ian Smeeton Posted June 29, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 29, 2014 Somewhat boastful sign. No further comment to make. SignAB.jpg Many years ago on the bar of the Great Northern Hotel in Peterborough, while consuming a pint prior to depositing the old man on to a train northbound, he was admiring the highly polished back bar, newly refurbished and with odd bits of bric a brac. He looked up, to find a pair of tobacco jars, marked 'best ' and 'black Irish '. The question had to come "What, exactly, is those jars?" The reply, from me, "Condoms" Regards Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
