Unique or Funny Signs

Saturday Photo Hunters is brought to you by tnchick. Go on over there to see who's participating and go visit their sites.

Today's theme is "Unique or Funny Signs." This is what I came up with from my photographs.

This sign is at Bear Creek Park in Surrey, BC. People can barbecue over hot coals here so I guess the parks board figures that it's important to remind them not to throw their trash in with the hot coals. Hmmm....I wonder what would happen if they did?


This sign was in the town of Caerleon in Wales. My friend Jane and I were visiting all the historical sites dating back to the Roman era, and I thought it was rather funny to see the word "toilets" there.

Finally, my absolute favourite is this one. I saw this billboard as I stepped off the Roman underground metro and had to stop and take a picture. It's an advertisement for Heineken beer and is hilarious!
