Hi again.
If you saw my August 2014 Month in Numbers post you'll have seen some photos of the livestock I encountered at the Egton country show. But, while the animals, local colour and scenery were all worth photographing ... me being me ... I was on the look out, as always, for something to make me laugh.
And I found it in the shape of this sign attached to one of the tents:

['Little squidgy-bellied blogger' would just feel harsh ...].
And, it's like my sister said: maybe they secretary is just big-boned?
;-)

We have an album of signs that made us laugh. Like the one that used to be on the road to Portishead that said "Danger, low-flying Owls" or the one in Polperro that said "Parking for Italiens only".
ReplyDeleteSpotting and photographing a funny sign is one of my favourite parts of a holiday / day trip - I love the thought of having them all in an album!
DeleteActually, since I showed cattle, and sheep in 4-H and FFA, I'm pretty sure it's the secretary for the heavy livestock like cattle, sheep and pigs, rather than the size of the secretary. We had to weigh our cattle and sheep in Feb, and have them identified and then the livestock is reweighed and identification is rechecked at the fair,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the insider info Kris. As a language lover I just I like to find the double, unintended, meaning in some signs - males me smile :-)
DeleteHad a good chuckle at your 'squiggly-bellied blogger' line :)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking as a secretary, I'm a little concerned as to how they may describe me in the office!
ReplyDeleteSmiling broadly here! Good to know she's alive at least. I've seen some who were (bloggers' company excepted) half-dead ...
ReplyDeleteI so love your sense of humour! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteThe sign made me think of a large cow with cat-eyed glasses and a string of red beads sitting at her desk, very far-side a la Gary Larson.
