Lancs_Lad   10 #1 Posted April 3, 2014 Well there is a new road sign at the junction of Ben Lane and Dykes Hall Rd but it actually reads DKYES HALL RD.  Anyone else noticed it?  I can't believe no-one noticed it from manufacture to installation.

fling   10 #2 Posted April 5, 2014 I noticed a spelling error on a bus advertisement last week. It was for the insurance company Allianz and worldwide was spelt without the "l". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ll49 Â Â 10 #3 Posted April 6, 2014 Girls high school had a sign put up following their Ofsted inspection and it said 'Excellent in every catergory'....it's unbelievable that these signs make it through to completion without anybody noticing the spelling mistake. I imagine it was quite embarrassing for girls high as well as being ironic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

solarman   10 #7 Posted April 6, 2014 Even dyslexic people need a job, tho probably not doing road signs  ---------- Post added 06-04-2014 at 10:59 ----------  Mind you, looking at the new road signs being put up at Meadowhead and the road markings perhaps thats how its supposed to be?
