signs (general)

gap teeth other side

what a vain world we live in. terry thomas lookalikes have to use the back door to avoid upsetting the beautiful people at the front.

word 19 – welcome: miserable sign

there was a model train museum on the Isle of Wight which claimed to be the biggest in the UK or something.
i quite fancied going until i saw this sign. then i went right off it.
sometimes a sign tells you more about the person behind the sign than the instructions themselves.
i feared for my children and mobile if we went in. so we didn’t.

maxell – no longer breaking the sound barrier

i used to love that ‘maxell, break the sound barrier’ ad. the modern version doesn’t have the same ring to it does it ?

gas problems

gas can be a problem for some people. it’s usually something to do with their diet.
if things get really bad, you know who to go to.

a baby with a full nappy. full to bursting in fact (which accounts for the small ‘nugget’ on the floor !

restrictive signs from the barbican

i haven’t a clue what some of these mean. the one with the chap hopping by the tree is particularly random !

some nice signs with people on

here is a nice nuclear family picture. if they all had their arms down i recon they could fit one more person in that shelter. but instead they are being very protective of their space:

sign video

well. i caught a Beautiful South video on The Amp earlier.
it’s quite excellent and you should watch it. there’s a few excellent moments – especially the slippery floor sign and the recreation of the builder sign.

a bizarre baby changing sign

this sign was definately for the baby changing but i can’t work out what it’s meant to be showing. it looks more like an alien autopsy.
