this sign was one of the main reasons i knew we'd be ok if we moved to new zealand.  we saw it on our scouting trip in easter.  it's on an onramp to state highway 1

very meta

is this meant to help people who can't read ?  if so, best to stick to all pictures or all words.  otherwise it looks a bit like a top trumps card.

i used to love the giant banks of signs at Waterloo station. i loved how it used to cycle through all the possibilities on each line with a flapperty flippery noise which would some how flutter across the whole station. It was a visual and aural treat.

but now it's been removed and no longer there. not even a last chance to video it for youtube or something. what a shame.

why is the fat lady wearing gloves ? and why have the old man and the man with the grabbing stick got x-ray specs on ?

more exciting than shoe world i wonder ?


merlin sent me this sign of saying watch out for speed bumps. positioning is everything with signs !


were cars ever actually shaped like this ? probably one for the older readers

there's no need to go slow anymore. this slow sign has been 'erased' by painting it black.




what's this boring photo about mr funkypancake i hear you asking. well, let me answer.

it's a train board in paddington station. these things normally tell you where the train is going, but this one just had three dots.

as if to say "and ..."

or perhaps they are full stops. ie the train has come to a full stop at the station. which it had.
