Saw this on the side of a LAND ROVER last week

" If you spot a leak please ring 0800......"

Why don't they do like everyone else and park it on the drive.

Now anyone know the address of the Chief Exec of Severn Trent Water

My favourite is the builders van in Stoke:
"Well driven? If so call Police, probably stolen."

I shall look out for that one! :)

I saw a truck in stoke earlier in the year that make me laugh. It was
obviously owned by an odd job/maintenance type bloke. It said on the
back something like 'want something moving? whatever it is, we will
shift your s'. It ran off the end of the tailgate here! :)

It made me smile!.

I managed to find my camera and take a picture while driving but it
wasn't readable as i had slowed down and lost him :(

I can go better than that: around here is a company who do birdwatching
holidays, Cambrian Bird Holidays. They have a bus, in the bit at the top
where the route indication used to be is a sign much as you describe
above...

I saw on the back of an Age Concern minibus recently:

"No elderly people left in this vehicle overnight"

Made me chuckle!

I keep meaning to get two lines of text put on my landie's front and
rear.

Front, on bull bars & in reverse print (so it reads correctly in your
rear view mirror) "My crumple zone is the first 10 inches of YOUR
vehicle, so get out of the way"

Rear, on the bumper: "Your skid ends here"

Still haven't got round to getting it but "You can play more with a
Claymore" will be going on the trailer board on the back of the
pinkie. ISTR someone with a stand doing vinyl stickers at Sodbury, or
was it Langley Farm?
