funkypancake: signs (no parking) Archives

please do not park in front of gates

who laid out this sign

i saw this an instantly thought some words must have been scrubbed out. it took me a while to realise they hadn't. this is it.

two sticks are better than one

i like to look around as i walk. last week i spotted these two sticks in the ground and let my eyes follow then up to the top to see why there was two

and there seemed to be no logical explanation as this lovely selection of signs could have been held on a single stick

so my only thoughts are that it's for the benefit of dogs and this may be the first 'his and hers' weeing posts ?

confusing signs though, aren't they readers ?

tow away hall users only

they must really dislike the hall users if they are going to tow only their cars away

no parking (n)either day (n)or night

no morring fish bathing

mooring fishing bathing. the classic combo

police informed of obstruction

bit presumptuous. there might not be an obstruction. that's the idea of the sign. unless they think the battle is already lost.

twin no parkings signs (and parked car)

the p-word

the talk at church yesterday was about the 'p word' (prayer) and how we need help. made me think of this picture which i was about to post. funny old world.

park in spaces provided to avoid being disturbed

no parking various things... or feeding the dirty pigeons

tree parking (would suit squirrel)

free parking (subject to restrictions)

many apologies in advance about the spontaneous protest we've planned

no parkvertising

here are a load of cool parking signs around the Spitalfields area of London. They are outside W+K's office so i suspect it's actually advertising people showing off. but it's good showing off.

and, in a bizarre blogs-collide type way, Russel has posted an interview with one of the W+K planners !

players of the day

how do you know if you are going to be awarded 'player of the day' until you've played your game and turned out better than everyone else ?

we had a music practice last night and jane asked lynda the piano player to play a little riff thing that she sung. "just a minute" said lynda, "i need to work out where the notes are". i helpfully pointed out that she had loads of them on that funny long black and white table she was sitting at.

her piano might have more notes than my bass guitar, but i can play the same note on different strings, whereas she only has one of each note at each pitch. so there.

and then i spotted this one yesterday morning:

what does it all mean (and more specifically what do they both mean ?)
