I am reminded of one of the Samantha stories, on "I'm sorry I haven't a clue"
"Samantha was going to the Races with one of her new gentlemen friends, so she stopped off at the butchers, to buy some cold meat for the sandwiches.
She was so hungry that she ate them all on the way, but she was glad that she did, as she was able to enjoy the day out much better, with some of the butchers tongue inside her"
Years ago I used to walk past a Garden shop on my way to work. There was a sign in the window which read "we have big, fat balls" . The childish part of me smirked at it.
My favourite was in Southern Ireland, the long road from Killarney towards Kanturk.....passing an undertaker who had an A-board out on the edge of the pavement to the main road through the village. It simply said, "Graves are open."
Worked in the advertisement dept of a local paper many years ago. Had to phone the boss of a department store to ask him to change his advert which read "Start off Spring with a bang in the ladies department". He couldn't see what the problem was.
Years ago, an American couple once stopped me in Leicester Square and asked me the way to a Chinese Restaurant, that their Hotel porter had recommended.
It was called Me Lon Cok. I gently suggested that their legs had been pulled, although they couldn't really understand why ! I then directed them to my favourite place in Lisle Street, called Mr Kongs. I do so hope they enjoyed their meal !
