the new parking meter phenomena
have you noticed these new things which have appeared on some parking meters ? They are bags with words on.
i noticed this on Monday evening:
and then i spotted this one yesterday morning:
what does it all mean (and more specifically what do they both mean ?)
mass break out
regular readers will know of my fear of plant breakouts. i don’t know if it’s a triffid
these guys had definately up and left though
big movie stars ?
i occasionally see film shoots around town and sometimes i’m brave enough to ask people what’s going on. but i wasn’t yesterday.
it was something quite high profile as there were quite a few police keeping guard, even hidden in doorways round the corner. it was either someone important, or someone very attractive.
we paint the door
i love the wording on this sign. it makes me want to give the person (people?) who wrote it a big hug.
great wording, great line breaks (good emphasis of the word ‘it’).
i can’t be doing with all those capital letters though.
strange chap
the chap on this picture is a bit strange. something about his legs and lack of hands i think. i can’t work out which way round he/she is facing.
olympic boot
this is an actual british olympian’s actual ski boot. note the jack union buckle clips.
a dead cert
a funeral parlour next to a betting shop. what a great idea. you could even play chicken by running across the road between the cars. if you make it you get a payout from Coral. if you don’t you end up next door.
food plurals
you say panini i say paninis.
guess the thing
depending on how old you are, this might be a really easy thing to guess (or not).
