    haven't got a pic.. but i was training for the Vierdaagse walk (100miles in 4 days) and there was a stretch or road between two small hills (covered in corn) and it looked like the middle of nowhere cos the road bent round them. Anyway, there was a big sign saying Old People Crossing with the stereotyped hunchbacks and walkingsticks. Thought it was hilarious - if i ever see it again i'll deffo take a picture.

    There's a sign at the top of the "Eiffel Tower" in Prague, which I thought was erm....male masterbation not permitted...but turned out to be a sensible no bottles sign.

    I wish I'd taken a picture of a sign I saw a few years ago in the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital
    It was a poster showing a new born baby with the words "The first 3 hours are the most dangerous of your life"
    And someone had written underneith
    "The last 3 hours aren't very good either"

    wow, you gotta love these topics

    On the Jordanian/Syrian border, there is a sign that says (english is the international language BTW, so all nations have to some kind of english on their signs) 'Welcome in Syria' . This is actually technically correct in all other languages, but not in English. Also, from the book 'Lost in Translation' (from a suspension bridge signpost or something): "Cars may not engage in intercourse on bridge forward."

    I wish I'd taken a picture now...
