The situation is THAT bad?

Apparently the chances of catching the MRSA superbug or some other dread complication are so high in UK hospitals that the Health & Safety Executive require warning signs at hopsital entrances.

Nifty blog! I love odd signs, too. I've posted several on my travel blog, Nomads Unlimited (link in my profile). Enjoy!

Love the site! I actually collect photos of funny signs, too, but didn't think to put them on a blog. Very clever!

Signs I notice a few where I am from in Canada. We are bilingual. In Hong Kong, where I was born, even more signs, three languages, hindi, english, and chinese. Well, I haven't been back for five years.
Ever notice the colours are different and make no sense?

I love this stuff! Very funny...One of my favourite signs is "Slow Men Working"...I always laugh out loud because you always see 5 or 6 consturction workers standing around watching 2 or 3 people do al the work. I makes me think if they were fast men working, they wouldn't need a sign.

Many American doctors are so amazingly bad these days. That sign should now be required at all American hospitals as well.

Very good. I saw a sign but didn't photograph it and regret it everytime I see something else so silly. Gonna bookmark this. Thanks for the laugh.

They covered it up when my mum
got it and said it was pneumonia.
