suein56 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 [quote user="Clair"]A restaurant in the village has branched out into "Pizzas et Snaking"...[/quote]Now that really makes the mind boggle; do you think they perform the equivalent of the dance of the seven veils but with a snake/snakes involved somewhere whilst they bring you your pizza? I don't really fancy that idea ...Sue [blink] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 There used to be a takeaway near us with a sign in the window saying : "We do not sell chip's on it's own." The grocer's apostrophe is pretty common, imo (and often spotted on here, as it happens. Grind.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancer Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 [quote user="tegwini"]Seen worse, not long ago in Salisbury we had Toni's Pizza's !Tegwini[/quote]"Toni's Pizza's" .............. what exactly?Or perhaps the signwriter dropped dead.We have the Corner's Pub, I keep asking the owner when one or all of the corners will be in attendance.My dear departed mother had a favorite joke about illuminated sign installers, on the last job of the day they were fixing up the letters for "Accles & Pollock" when to their dismay found that they had a "B" instead of a "P", not wanting to be blasphemous they returned to every previous customer that day looking for the missing "P".The London Brick Company were not amused!
