My mate owns a pub and we were chilling there last night and looking through funny cctv videos. We realised that there is a constant battle between the local council and everyone else in our town regarding this sign. It’s been through this lifecycle a few times now.
very interesting. was cool seeing the drunk people fixing it then some scumbag comes along
I so dislike blinking rearlights
Paint them red
Well that won’t of ended badly
Wheres he taking it
You need to wait ’til they’re ripe to pick them.
Friend of mine during his drunken student days nicked a For Sale sign and got stopped by the police walking down the road with it over his shoulder.
Apparently he tried to outrun the police car, and was told by the kindly police officer that if ever did that again, he’d break his legs.
There’s some upstanding members of the community in that first group. Pillars of the community.
Buxton?
The are 2 types of drunk.
What an emotional rollercoaster
“Why is my council tax so high?” – ask people who keep hitting signs with their cars and stealing them so the council has to put new ones in
good grief man
When I walked home from my mates 18th I saw some “road closed” signs on the pavement. Being a twat I thought it’d be funny to close the road to troll some people. I sat at the bus stop and waited. Guy pulls up, picks up the signs and plonks them on the pavement.
I’m glad my bad behaviour didn’t cause anyone grief.
Still a better story than bran the broken.

Bus repairer for many years here.
When bus drivers learn to drive buses “always check your mirrors” is drummed into them. We gave them big bright yellow mirrors so they can see them. Still that happens all the fucking time

haha poor sign
Anybody else’s council just have steel rotting all over the place? Street lights, sign posts, even life ring holders.
I live in London, hardly the harshest weather in the UK.
The first group of drunk people need to be restored to factory settings. They’re not supposed to *repair* signposts.
It’s beautiful
I didn’t think I could feel sorry for a sign…. But good to see some drunk folk trying to fix it at one point.
Am I the only one that wants to know where it ended up? Lol
What an embarrassment this country is.
Funnily enough, I saw some builders rip out a road sign today.
