Re: Confused
So we can look forward to even more warning notices when the paint is eroding?Paul 300358 wrote:The paint erodes from the road and is not repainted, well, not where I live anyway. So, no cats eyes and no reflective paint. That is the reason when Mr BMW is driving towards you on an unlit road, you can't see a thing.

Re: Confused
Signs that always make us chuckle are the " Formation de trous" on the A16 near Calais. Are they low- flying trous ? How long do the authorities give them to form before putting up warnings about fully- formed trou ?
How long before our own home grown Oxfordshire trous get their own warning notices ? Probably cheaper than filling them in.

My personal favourite on the A4 near Reading advises that the street lights are turned off between midnight and 5.00 am. I guess we might not notice otherwise!!!

One of my favourites is the tourism direction sign (several around the country) pointing to 'secret bunker'.

Exactly. A statement of the obvious if they are not on.......however I suspect the answer will be its stops people from phoning to report a fault.ayarcee wrote:My personal favourite on the A4 near Reading advises that the street lights are turned off between midnight and 5.00 am.

Saw one that other day:
NO PARKING
GATES IN CONSTANT USE
I watched for several hours, the gates weren't used once.

Suppose it makes a nice change from watching paint dry

Re: Confused
I've just found this (tent only) campsite. I wonder if there are any sign posts to it?

The road may have a dog leg in it. Where the rest of the dog is is anybody's guess.

Re: Confused
I spotted a couple more interesting signs today.
On the A22 (closed at South Godstone) - Follow diversion signs, not your sat nav.
And on the Ann Summers factory outlet store - massive stock clearance sale.
I wasn't quite sure how to interpret that one.
