The San Francisco Symphony continues its project of restoring long-forgotten repertoire to the concert hall:

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

This isn't a sign... it's a thread title I've just spotted posted on a local message board by somebody advertising their business.

"Rubbish clearance service"

Thread originator: "rubbish boys"

If they're that bad, why would anybody want to employ them?

I once saw in a newspaper a photo of a sign outside a church hall... it read...

'Red arrows diplay at 4pm, inside if wet'

Not a sign, but a splendidly bad piece of journalism from my local freesheet, the Brighton and Hove Leader:

"FURY AS THIEVES RUIN TRIBUTE

City Councillors have condemned inept criminals who smashed the statue of Olympic gold medallist Steve Ovett.  Cllr Geoffrey Theobald, who chairs the environment committee, said he was "absolutely disgusted" by the would-be thieves who lifted the statue from its plinth in Preston Park, Brighton, but only succeeded in causing it irreparable damage."

So now you know - Brighton and Hove Council welcomes competent criminals .....  Wink  Wink

As a general rule, do not competent criminals ascend to the heights of incompetent city councils?

Seen in Dorset last week, has anyone any ideas what it may mean? or has someone been reading the waffle thread of many moons ago?

Gentlemen in Boots:  Do not get distracted by the Partridge ahead, as your wife will use it as an excuse to steal your wallet.
