Uncle or broken lampshade? The lampshade is cheaper, it would seem. Although, curiously, it would seem that a large uncle is cheaper than a small uncle.
Hmmm...each individual letter is identical and the typeface is the same as Puccino's. I call fake 'viral' marketing pic.
I took that photo at Bexleyheath last year, Puccino's being the little cabin on the station. I make you right though, it is too perfect. As an advertisement it grabbed my attention - so job done I guess.
Not a spelling mistake, however still amuses me this day today. Local kebab shop in Lewisham (Belmont Hill) quite a few years ago - had a big printed sign in the window, advertising 'onion rings'. There was a white circle in the middle of the poster, where the owner was supposed to write the price. Above it, it stated the word 'Only' (as in 'only £1.99'). Instead the owner had written the number '4', as this is how many onion rings you would get per portion.
I often wonder when you see bad signs whether it's the company or the graphic designer's fault. If I ordered a sign and they chucked a random apostrophe in I'd definitely refuse to pay and never use them again.
Across the border from Derry/Londonderry in Co. Donegal is a coastal village called Muff.
There is also an Irish oil company called Tedcastle's Oil Products (with petrol stations signed as TOP).
In a previous existence, driving for DHL, I nearly lost my life at a roundabout on the outskirts of Derry/Londonderry, near the Foyle Bridge, when I saw the sign proudly declaring the sponsorship of the gardening/flowers at the roundabout by TOP Muff....
When in university in Dublin (I took the scenic route through university) the sub aqua club plotted a trip up to Muff to have their pictures, with their gear, taken beside the sign as you entered the village. We're a sad lot in Ireland.
