'All' has been redefined

I guess the fact that the 'All Butter' twists had Cheese in them was a bit of a give-away but even so a look at the ingredient list shows that 'All' now equals 29%.

[At an M&S store near you]

P.S. They are very scrummy

Stating the obvious, but not clear for all to see - 2

Sighted visitors can see that these interpretation boards are written in braille, the blind visitors cannot see the word "Braille" on the post, so what is the point of putting it there?

Stating the obvious, but not clear for all to see

In case its is hard to decipher, the sign reads. "New sign required"

[Goodnestone, Kent UK]

"Caught" in the act

Unless, of course, the sign on the other side of the pole says, "Reading of signs prohibited"

Startling revelations from the Dairy industry

Although, come to think of it, isn't milk the one thing that butter doesn't contain? My understanding of the butter production process is that the cream is skimmed off and separated from the milk and the cream is churned into butter while the milk is used for other purposes.

They need to get back to the Book ...

Isaiah 40:31But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Psalm 37:9 but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.

How do they tell if you are waiting or loitering?

[Joe, who found this in Caledonia, Ontario, Canada always thought there were only 10 commandments.]

A public body with a sense of humour??

Who writes this rubbish?

How, exactly, does a camera enforce traffic?

And why do they use a pictogram of a camera that most people could not identify with? When did you last see a camera with an expanding bellows lens arrangement?

(Although, if you squint and imagine hard, you can see the profile of a dog's head with a muzzle on it's snout.)

Battery's not included?

OK, so where do I plug my battery shaver in?

[At a Travelodge near you.]

Answers on another postcard, please.

Thinking caps on again. What is this sign saying?

[Found by Clare, I know not where.]

And the winner is ...

Time to close competition number one. As with all good competition conclusion speeches, "The quality of the entries was extremely high and the judges found it very hard to come to a conclusion. They would like to thank all the entrants and are disappointed that you could not all win etc, etc, blah, blah ..."

The real answer, as supplied by Prasad, was that the sign is posted on the way to a beach in the Harihareshwar, India, area. It's supposed to warn motorists of people who are so taken by the sudden appearance of the sea that they may be running towards it.

Well, THAT was obvious wasn't it?

I am going to give first place to Cal with "when dancing, beware of spontaneous decapitation ..." and a close second to Teutsch with "Help! Man stuck in triangle!"

Poor unloved little thing ...

Not only does no one love it enough to adopt it, the poor thing has an identity crisis: Is it a Road? Is it a Lane?

I know this is not a sign but ...

Why are there FIVE holes in these ancient stocks? Don't legs come in pairs?

Provisions for the after-life?

[The second of Krista's African collection.]

Well the sign certainly is ...

Not the most compelling advert on the planet.

[Sent in by Krista who says " collecting interesting/funny signs has been one of my on-going personal projects since I arrived [in Africa]."]

Not ANOTHER health warning!

In order to protect us from ourselves, the government will no doubt decree that all songs mentioning Love are, henceforth, banned.

[But perhaps it only applies in Harihareshwar, India where Prasad found this sign for sale.]

Someone is having a laugh.

It appears to be for real, but must be a gag, read the small print.

[Another Emily Harte 'catch']

Big Brother is watching, maybe ...

But only if they trespass while we're watching.

Perhaps they meant to say, "This area is now under surveillance. From time to time trespassers will be prosecuted."

[Sent in by Tanya Giannelia who spotted it on Duckworth Street, St. John's, Newfoundland]

Reassured, they drove on ...

What a comforting thought! Can't see any cellphone towers on the horizon either!

[Nevertheless, Emily Harte made it safely back to share this with us.]

I'm gonna get me some of this ....

I wonder how much this 'cut price cash' costs? Unfortunately the shop was closed but if you happen to be driving along the A4 near Halfway (yes, that is the name of the place) then do stop by and grab a bargain.
