... stating the bleeding obvious. I was in Victoria Park today, and where they keep the rowing boats was a sign " This is a water based activity, and you may get wet". Well, who would have thought it?

Hi Bob,

I do so wish you had a photo of this sign ........ one of my local facebook groups would have field day commenting on it! Many of the members spent their childhood school holidays over there! :-D

I know a few who are anti-water. Soap dodging is still well & truly practised in my locality.

Sign at a camp site near Devizes :- In case of fire, shout FIRE. Which reminds me of a Limerick...
There was a young man from Devizes,
had balls of two different sizes.
One was so small, it was no ball at all.
The other so large it won prizes.

Beloved bought a heat gun to strip paint off the doors.

Amongst the hazard warnings.................

This is not a hairdryer.



So........methinks that SOMEONE must have tried to use it as such!
