Sign of the times

The very first of the 'Firkin' pub chain was I believe the 'Fox &
Firkin' in S Wimbledon. They used to sell T shirts emblazoned "For Fox
sake buy me a Firkin Pint!"

My local electronics store had the following sign for their January
sale "USB turntable was £250, now ONLY £250.

For those of you who are passing Alresford Hampshire, the sign outside
Barclays Bank calls the town Arlesford.

Here's a few more daft signs, lifted from "You absolutely couldn't
make it up" by Jack Crossley:

Mirror, unused, £20 (small ad)

Close gate to stop sheep worrying (on a farm gate)

Push button to open automatic doors (on an Arts Centre door)

This heater is hot when in use (on a heater, strangely!)

Sale of old stock (in antique shop window)

May cause drowsiness. If affected, do not drive (on infant medicine
bottle)

Artificial leg (left) with matching shoe (left). Only walked two
miles. Suit tallish person with right leg only. £65 ono (small ad, but
could be straight out of Derek & Clive)

Parachute for sale. Used once, never opened. Small stain. £199 (small
ad, the mind boggles...)

Remove cap and push up bottom (instructions on deodorant stick)
