classic kiwi signage

110106_s95_img_1274.jpg

this style of writing on signs is classic kiwi.  and it includes a couple of nicies too like

“nice  friendly service” and

*even the locals say we’re good* suggesting the locals are a hard to please lot.  not sure if they’d like this sign.

is this your cat

fantastic lost cat sign in the streets of auckland.  well worth looking at the big version to read the small print
