There must be something funny about #1630 but I don’t know what it is… anyone?

It’s a pun but I think you need to be British to get it.

“cats eyes” are reflectors in roads.

The warning sign was moved from the road to in front of the veterinarians.

To me, about as tasteful as moving a “slow children” sign to in front of a downs syndrome institution. But I am, and have always been, a “cat person”, so it strikes a nerve.

Thanks, Mitt. I would not have understood without that complete explanation. :see_no_evil:

Oops, yes. It defo loses something if you don’t know what cats’ eyes are. Sorry folks!

I never considered that would not translate.
It’s a sign you would see on the road while work is in progress and the reflectors have been dug out.

I saw raised reflectors in the middle of the highway years ago, but they were small rectangles, not a pair of “eyes”. Haven’t seen any in quite a few years, but that’s probably because they are not prevalent in the area where I live now… Totally did not know what UK “cat’s eys” were and would not have recognized the sign for what it was, either, without Mitt’s description. Thanks everyone for illuminating the cat’s eyes.

It’s akin to the ‘Heavy plant crossing’ sign which every time i see i think i should get a high-vis vest and a large potted plant and walk slowly across the road.

I also like that on the back of our rubbish lorries (Garbage trucks for the Americans :wink: ) it often says ‘Workers at rear - slow’
As they couldn’t write the ‘slow’ bit first as usual as it would say ‘Slow workers at rear’ which may or may not be the case :slight_smile:

I pass by this sign often and wonder how they manage to stay in business (see top line of sign).

I also like their laser precision in removing exactly 50% of hair…

And if the weight loss was in pounds rather than dollars it would be quite impressive.

About as valid as many of the claims made (on both sides)…

Saw a funny sign in Malta. Couldn’t make a pic unfortunately.
It said:

DEAD
SLOW
CHILDREN
CROSSING

It would be a miracle if they’d cross the road fast or slow, being dead and all ??

That is two words, it couldn’t be poor spelling and kerning.
