Quite descriptive signs in Sydney

I laughed when I saw an amusing sign on Sydney rail this morning.

i saw one as i was driving along chatwoods that says kiss and park at the parking stations.. didn't know what that means tho

[Justin]

Kiss'n'park - when I lived at Woop-woop, my partner used to drop me off at epping station in the kiss'n'park (aka Kiss'n'ride etc).

It would go like this -
Drive to station
Park
Kiss goodbye
get on train

Reverse in the evenings...

got the gist?

why is it so blurry?

were you smoking something that the sign clearly (although probably not to you) stated was prohibited?

[Mitchell]

Sydney has a habit of making a sign prohibiting anything and everything. I'm not sure if this is just a Sydney thing, or whether it is all of Australia. There is certainly nothing like it in Europe

I can't help myself snapping some when I see them:

(sorry if this is a hijack WW, let me know and I will move it elsewhere)



You can't beat the below for sheer comprehensiveness, but particularly notice the 'general warning' in the middle at the bottom...

No probs. Funny stuff. That Balmoral reserve sign is rediculous!

Classics!!

I have a photo somewhere (can't seem to find it atm) from my trip to Sydney in 2002; it was a laser printed sign in a 7-11 stuck to a basket of fruit and it proclaimed "We now sell APPLES" and underneath they had printed the Apple logo!

I had to snap it and send it to my Apple tech friend!

(Cos it was sooooo hard to see that they sell apples!!)

One from the Shaolin monastery, many signs like this on the walk through the gardens
