I am almost willing to believe that this tyre shop in Cannock is run by the Bargen family…

Spelling fail: Staffordshire Music Centre
Posted in Signs, spellings and silliness, tagged Advertising, Fail, Spelling on March 11, 2013| 2 Comments »
I don’t really want to mock the Staffordshire Music Centre as it looks like a brilliant venture, but they have found their “creative side” on their sign…
Unexpected encouragement on the motorway

I love spotting patterns in everything so my heart felt particularly warmed when these two encouraging messages lined up alongside each other on the M6 motorway this morning. Everyone can use some TLC and hugs, after all.
Grammar fail: Bellway Homes
Posted in Signs, spellings and silliness, tagged Advertising, Fail, Grammar on March 5, 2013| Leave a Comment »
I was recently described as a “grammar guardian” and it’s true that I am only a couple of steps away from carrying around a red marker pen to correct mistakes on signs. For now I manage to satisfy myself with taking pictures of the offending error (and then tweeting them for the masochistic pleasure of my fellow pedants).
It occurred to me that I could give these pictures a permanent home on here, so where better to start than with this double horror from Bellway Homes?
