A short coincidence story today via JC, who often finds some interesting bits and pieces for me.
"The following day I was looking round a used book store which I had never been inside previously. There was a small cardboard box full of old books on one of the tables and I had a rummage through them. The very first book I pulled out (published well over twenty years ago) was called "Funny Road Signs." On the cover was a cartoon illustration of the very same sign I had just read about in Reader's Digest the previous day!
"Before reading about it in Reader's Digest, I had never heard about that silly road sign before. Then I get hit with it twice in less than twenty four hours. What are the odds of that happening? It was totally weird.
But sometimes in the UK we go slightly over the top with our signs - there shouldn't be any doubts about the situation below.
And sometimes we state the blatantly obvious.
The Australians sometimes add their humour to signs.
It seems, however, that strange or funny signs are nothing new.
A good laugh to start my day! And what an odd synchro for JC!
