Yesterday, I tried to get a pic of the screen at the railway station which said that if people wanted to get to station X, they should go by another route, because

A PERSON HAS BEEN STICK BY A TRAIN

I should have added, 'Is there really cannibalism at the seaside?'

Sloppy lazy people, I wouldn't go into a place that couldn't be bothered to print the right signs. Makes the mind boggle though!

[sandyRoe]

Did they mean, A person has been sick by a train? ;-)

[boxtops]

sandy, sadly no, a "chuck self on line" job :-(

A sad reflection on the education system.

It's the signwriters' fault really though rather than the premises if they are printed. No dog's is funny.

[boxtops]

Good point, Prudie, signwriters might be reprimanded if they change the customers' spelling!

[DaisyNonna]

Some do it to gain attention.

There was one advertising Cofffee and Tea. I stared it for a bit before it twigged.

I think that all of us have mental blocks with some part of our language, punctuation of speeling. But I have to admit to loving spell-check.

My Father had a "Beware of the Dog's" sign on the gate for years before anyone said any thing. It wasn't until a girlfriend of mine said "dog's what?" that we ever thought about it, he still didn't take it down until the gate was changed though.
