it's one rule for them and another for us

080909_850_img_0961.jpg

a shelter for bike racks.  it's good that people care for the carers.

for those who haven't been following the page thing, most of the posters at Paddington Station seem to have page numbers on at the bottom left hand side.

i was pleased with the shot above just as it was, but then i noticed the floating bollard.

very mysterious

080115_850_img_6478.jpg

etcetera full stop.  little too vague for my liking.

complementary looking.  esther took full advantage and looked at the bike

the penalty for parking your bike here is a beheading.

Vin sent me this photo as a teaser to see if you could guess what it was from (he also sent me a picture of the actual thing which i'll post when someone guesses it!)

a patio heater thing (well done matt!)

there's no hedging on this one. the road to riches is for walking down, not for back peddling. or something

you can't say i haven't been warning you ! police are actively removing bikes.
http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/06/DSC00225-thumb.jpg

and as an example, here's another no bikes sign

as a pedestrian, i approve of this sign

http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/05/DSC09437-thumb.jpg

i spotted these traffic wardens putting tickets on some bikes and couldn't believe my eyes, so i went to see what the tickets said
http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/05/DSC09788-thumb.jpg

in fact they weren't tickets at all. they were stickers warning bike owners to secure their bikes more securely !

i like this picture. i think it's the directness and pointyness of the sign. click for the big version and make it your desktop (or something)

what if you are a cyclist and happen to be walking that day. can you still use the footpath ? they need an FAQ for signs like this.

andy sent me this photo he took at a wedding. i think it's fantastic. it's even got a bike sign in the background !

http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/04/andy_DSCF0785-thumb.jpg

i think i've mentioned before that they often get dignitaries in to open buildings, but i've not heard of them coming along to close anything.

today the queen went to the BBC to open their new building. And as a result they closed the bike parking, so the queen does close things after all !

http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/04/DSC09396-thumb.jpg

i like how they've over-dubbed the original sign on this too.

this is one of those fancy racing bikes with funny spokes. the rider is dressed for speed (if we ignore his webbed feet)

http://www.funkypancake.com/blog/stuff3/2006/04/DSC04211-thumb.jpg

shouldn't that be "don't refuse dumping" ?
