I like to see road signs etc that make me laugh when taken literally. 'heavy plant crossing' on motorways, I have visions of a mutant, colossal tree forcing its way across the m1. crushing everything in its path.

I recently saw a sign in a grave yard that read 'NO DIGGING'

A few years ago I had relatives over from Canada. They nearly wet themselves laughing when we passed a sign saying "heavy plant crossing, mud on road". I think they expected triffids.

I love the big ones at the side of the motorway, that are wraped in plastic have a sticker on saying "sign not in use yet". No kidding.

In Menorca recently, I saw shops selling 'DUTTY FREE' and toy shops advertising 'Babyish things'. ahhhh.

Also 'P Free' signs (meaning parking), but written underneath - TOILETS!

In North Yorkshire on the outskirts of Ripon there is a warning sign that reads.....WARNING WHEELCHAIRS....I always imagine a herd of wheelchairs wheeling around like a bunch of dumb animals...:hihi:

I always find the road signs for falling rocks amusing, mainly because of the size of the rocks in the sign in proportion with the size of the hill. Quite scary too!

As you enter the village of Kettleshulme, Derbyshire, there is a sign saying "Take care - Old people playing".

sign on the wall outside handsworth community centre

SLOW CHILDREN

:hihi: :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

Condom Machines always read..........

......."pull knob and turn briskly to the right !"

Airport Left!

(I wanted to just put that but it was too short so I've had to make up with these words sorry!)

I can't believe those yellow plastic 'Wet Floor' signs haven't been mentioned yet. Remember guys, they're a warning, not an instruction! :hihi:

At the pinewoods in Formby near Liverpool there is an old fashioned rail crossing with a gate either side. A sign reads 'open far gate before crossing'. I'm still not entirely sure how you're supposed to reach.

I like the 26 + 6 =1 bumper sticker on the Sinn Fein website

Must be irish :P

My favourite sign is ouside the church in Christleton, the village I went to school just outside Chester.

The Vicar's name was on the entrance to the grave yard , about thirty feet from the Church porch.

his name was C R Bodies

i like the one near the Blind People's centre, in town, off West st. CAUTION BLIND PEOPLE.

Jump

no, not an instruction, it's a district of Barnsley.

Saw a photo of a sign in America - it read simply...
'Do not shoot at this notice'. It was riddled with bullet holes too.

I've seen signs on doors that say 'Pull' and 'Push' - but what do you do when it says 'Lift'?

I've seen "caution, road wet during rain" in the US. :D

In Stannington recently they have put upsome signs to warn motorists not to run them over.
I really thought it was a joke at first coz the frog on the sign is bright green and smiling away....sadly they are real.

One that seems to be getting more common in Sheffield as the rash of speed bumps spreads is "Humped Zebra Crossing". :thumbsup:
