Subject: RE: BS: Life's little absurdities
We used to see all sorts of strange things at Fleetwood where we were regular attendees of the Fylde Folk Festival. Some signs threw me -
This pier is open all year round from November 1st
These toilets are fitted with anti-climb
and, the oddest of the lot in a glass office in the indoor market -
This is not a ladies toilet.
The Victoria Cafe was always a source of amusement but the strangest thing we saw was just outside as we were waiting to be served. A policeman came out of the police station opposite carrying 2 teapots and put them down on the pavement. About 5 minutes later he came out, picked them up and carried them back in. The same day, in a joke shop round the corner from the cafe, there was a sign on the door proclaiming "Door sticks". The proprietor had no sense of humour and just looked blank when I went in to ask him for a door stick...
