Signs of the times

After a period of not much writing, there are a couple of thoughts in the pipeline... In the meantime, here is a more pictorial post. I’ve always been a fan of signs, and taking them apart (metaphorically). Here are a few personal favourites from the collection.

The most arrogant car park I know (Manchester)

The simply ironic (Oxford)

The poor rosebush just wanted to get to the other side... (Marple)

The bizarrely juxtaposed (my office!)

The wonderful rhyming ‘resurrection stone’ (Hale Village)

The somewhat pointless? (Bristol)

The slightly disturbing (a British canalside waterpoint, where this could actually happen)

The plain lies! (another canal, somewhere in the South of England...)

A little something for everyone... (Weasley’s Wizarding Wheezes in Diagon Alley)

Please let me know of any other classics you spot!
