Funny (road) signs

I have a few to post, but here's one to start....

 

 

The English is clear enough to lorry drivers - but the Welsh reads "I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated."

When officials asked for the Welsh translation of a road sign, they thought the reply was what they needed.

Unfortunately, the e-mail response to Swansea council said in Welsh: "I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated".

So that was what went up under the English version which barred lorries from a road near a supermarket.

"When they're proofing signs, they should really use someone who speaks Welsh," said journalist Dylan Iorwerth.

'Anti terrorism meausures' being taken by the Emergency Phone Box in Yuzawa --- a well known terrorist target.

A hotbed of international crime, is Yuzawa.

Well, international terrorists will certainly be put off attaching the phone box I reckon.

This sign clearly tells them that Yuzawa aren't going to be faffing about in the face of terrorism.

And rightly so!

What exactly is the point of that sign?

[Metabo Oyaji 71]

Can't read the fine print, but it may be a exhortation to report any suspicious objects.

 

Something like this one?

at that phone box a driver trying to use the phone would be suspicious!!

A gaijin, stopping, taking photos of the phonebox, then putting stickers on it and then photo-ing it some more and then driving off at normal speed would be a little bit more suspicious.
