In all honesty the one on the van looks like a VistaPrint.co.uk jobbie (i.e. on person designs + sends it off to be printed) and it's batched produced so the printer wouldn't really check it thoroughly

Spotted in a toilet of a London office:
TOILET OUT OF ORDER. PLEASE USE FLOOR BELOW.

In a London Laundromat:
AUTOMATIC WASHING MACHINES:
PLEASE REMOVE ALL YOUR CLOTHES WHEN THE LIGHT GOES OUT

Outside a London second-hand shop:
WE EXCHANGE ANYTHING - BICYCLES, WASHING MACHINES, ETC.
WHY NOT BRING YOUR WIFE ALONG AND GET A WONDERFUL BARGAIN?

Spotted in a safari park:
ELEPHANTS PLEASE STAY IN YOUR CAR

Seen during a London conference:
FOR ANYONE WHO HAS CHILDREN AND DOESN’T KNOW IT,
THERE IS A DAY CARE ON THE 1ST FLOOR

Notice in a field:
THE FARMER ALLOWS WALKERS TO CROSS THE FIELD FOR FREE,
BUT THE BULL CHARGES

On a repair shop door:
WE CAN REPAIR ANYTHING
(PLEASE KNOCK HARD ON THE DOOR,
THE BELL DOESN’T WORK)

People in other countries sometimes go out of their way to communicate with their English-speaking tourists. Here is a list of signs seen around the world :

At a Budapest zoo:
PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS.
IF YOU HAVE ANY SUITABLE FOOD,
GIVE IT TO THE GUARD ON DUTY.

Doctors clinic, Rome :
SPECIALIST IN WOMEN AND OTHER DISEASES.

Hotel, Acapulco :
THE MANAGER HAS PERSONALLY
PASSED ALL THE WATER
SERVED HERE.

In a Nairobi restaurant:
CUSTOMERS WHO FIND OUR
WAITRESSES RUDE SHOULD WAIT
AND SEE THE MANAGER.

In a City restaurant:
OPEN SEVEN DAYS A WEEK,
AND WEEKENDS TOO.

In a Calcutta Coffee House:
PEOPLE DISCARDING CIGARETTE
STUBS IN CUPS WILL BE SERVED
COFFEE IN ASH TRAYS

My money says those 3 are deliberate and not mistakes at all.

I have a picture of a sign somewhere in deepest darkest Tennessee that says: "SLOW CHILDREN CROSSING!"

Punctuation is overrated it seems.

At work in the Bogs we have a sign saying "Don't put chewing gum in the Urinals, Thank You"
nowt funny about that but every time I use the loo I turn it upside down or put it in a different place, Every time I come back in it is round the right way & back in it's place.
This Dude that started a few weeks ago that knows me through a Doris I was with (He was the little brothers best mate) Anyway he comes up to me & says' That's You moving that sign ain't it. +

It's the Little things.

Proper laughed at your post Mei

And massive giggles from me too Malc I like your style


I always get the giggles when I see the signs "WARNING, HEAVY PLANT CROSSING" Always expect this jumbo sized sunflower to come stomping out the side of the road roaring away!

Same but I see a Big bunch of Daffodils +

Another that gets me is "MEN AT WORK" Since when has putting an Umbrella up been work

I always look forward to 'Hidden Dips' and scan the horizon to see if I can spot them. Then it's always a barely noticeable hump in the road. Disappointment.
Also 'Falling Rocks'. Like Jimmy Carr said, what are you supposed to do with that information?

Another one is on the A14 dual carriageway on the way back from my daughters, Speed limit is 70mph & there is a sign "Pedestrians crossing"
WELL THEY SHOULDN'T BE DAMN WELL CROSSING SHOULD THEY
