Not being political, but this made me smile as I was delivering (political) leaflets this evening.

 

"Please put any political leaflets straight into the blue recycling bin as it'll save me the trouble. If you're from ---- (I won't mention any particular political party), then get off my land." 

 

I put a leaflet through their letterbox anyway..... :sungum:

Currently on some buses there is advertising for children's authors Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.

 

It consists of 4 separately applied panels.On the third panel it says "available from"

Underneath that is a name of a bookstore, half on the third panel, half on the fourth

There are two versions going the rounds.

(You can guess what comes next.) :scratchhead:

 

On the bus I saw it said "available from" "WaterSmith"!!! :jester:

There's something wrong with the engineering flowchart in post 537 above - no hammers. Can be rectified, although this shop was missing a sign "Hammer Time":

However, some hammers get very nervous if used for the wrong purpose:

While some people need a recording to be able to recognise one:

'round here they're Ommers.

And they're used for knocking screws in hence the term "Brummagem Screwdriver"
