Quirky signs and notices

A triffid, granjura?

I always told our girls that one April Fool Day I would dress up as a huge plant and go a-bounding across the road by one of those signs - but I never did (yet )

Yes, "Baby changing area" too - I always imagine people who have got babies who scream all night and dribble all day might be tempted to trade them in for a placid one that gets through fewer bibs.

On the wall of a public convenience which happened to be in a car park.

Toilets
Pay and Display

Sign on the wall in a Maltese shop "In God we trust - all others pay cash"

Our local shopping mall has a sign "you can change your little ones here"
I wonder if anyone has been tempted?

'SLOW Children crossing'.
Well, someone should tell them to get a move on!

I once saw a picture taken on the Scottish island of Benbecula, it was at the side of a road, and said "Otter crossing".

I once came across a 'Do Not Speed, Pheasants' notice on a track. I wonder if they complied!

I always smile at 'Heavy Plant Crossing', I wonder what the plant looks like, I always picture a Gunnera or Little Shop of Horrors monster.

A sign in our local shopping mall says "you can change your little ones here". I wonder how many harassed moms take advantage of this?

Wiki says: "Over time, iftar has grown into banquet festivals. This is a time of fellowship with families, friends and surrounding communities, but may also occupy larger spaces at masjid or banquet halls for 100 or more diners."

There use to be a sign just off the A2 (not sure if it's still there), which said "sign not in use"!

Well I think it is just supposed to be eat moderately after dusk Movealot. The feasting, I understand, comes at the end of Ramadan - known as Eid.

There's a sign as you approach the beach at Druridge Bay in Northumberland which says "Nesting birds take care"

My favourites when I first went to the UK where

'heavy plant crossing' !!!

and two opposite each other near Guildford

'free erection' (they sold sheds) and on the other side 'soft verge' (verge being one of the many words used in French for the male dudah).

My French students loved the one at our local garage 'air con £60'. They would pose behind the sign and pull the worst possible faces, saying they could do it for free. (avoir l'air con = to look like a tw*t).

The most worrying is the one near Cambridge which says 'airport/crematorium) (:

Ramadan in the northern summer must be difficult with such long hours of daylight. A girl who did work experience as a clerk in our college refused even to take an aspirin during daylight hours.

Ah, hadn't thought of that!

Perhaps they do different age-group Roasts on the other days of the week...

I think Muslims fast all day and then feast after dusk.

Roasting OAPs only is ageist isn't it?
