signs (handwritten)

paper persons required

i like this sign.  i especially like how they’ve clarified it’s not actually paper persons they need, it’s people delivery persons.  just so you don’t get confused. 

it’s also interesting that they changed the word ‘deliverys’ to areas.  probably to avoid a spelling amiguity. 

i do that myself – whenever i try to write scared i never know whether i’ve written scarred (or vice versa – still not sure) so write ‘worried’ instead.

please keep the door closed in the winter months

i like this sign. obviously huge amount of work has gone in to writing it with letter stencils, but you would have thought they would have made sure they had enough space for the last word !

i spoke to the chap who wrote this sign and he told me he’d raised £700 for the hospital which was quite fantastic.
i asked him if his answers related to geographic or spiritual lost-ness. he said it was solely geographic lost-ness. rather than soul-y lost-ness i assume.

closed forever

sorry, we’ve ran out of pasteries at the moment

this sign almost made up for the fact they had runned out of pasteries. but not quite.

angry neighbour

a sign appears in this street about once a year asking neighbours to not leave their rubbish out. i just love the effort that must go in to creating these signs.
