We all happen across them from time to time. Little pockets of humour spread all over the countryside. It doesn’t matter whether it is in a remote little village or on your everyday travels; a funny sign, whether intentional or not, can often make your journey memorable – or at the very least, liven up your day. This week’s funny signs were compiled by Devlin Nightingale.

The following funny signs were sent in over the past week by our readers:
Guy Hoffman spotted this notice on the inside of the lavatory door at Hoedspruit’s East gate airport. Burst water pipes leading to incontinence? Sounds about right. No need to applogise. I always thought incontinence was a more subtle ailment though.
Megan Land came across this warning sign on the side of the road on a trip to New Mexico, USA. Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped off to his doom?
Satish Chavda found this sign at the Steenberg Wine estate. I am inclined to disagree with the sentiment that stupidity is not a disability. Some stupidity does actually lead to disabilities. I mean, have you ever seen a person trying to iron his shirt with a steam iron whilst wearing it? Me neither. But the steam goes right through the shirt and burns. Or so I have heard.
Satish also discovered this little chocolate shop in Swellendam. It is indeed the reason we should be making more of an effort to save our planet. Imagine life without chocolate? I know it’s almost blasphemous.
Brittany Jayd Lowe found this sign while walking down one of the streets in Robertson. According to Brittany just the sound of the dogs was enough to deter her from entering.
Franziska Ruetschi sent in this funny sign. I have a feeling that the sign maker got lazy and left out the ‘… of sand’ at the end.
Monique Tenderini came across this sign in Hong Kong. Now I know that they love karaoke over in the east but in my experience when I start singing my head starts moving. Sharp objects around moving heads? Bad idea.
Francois Rademeyer was crossing the Zambezi into Caia, Mozambique when he noticed this sign. He openly admits to being too scared to try out this style of washing. In all honesty I would have been too.
Kieron Thwaites reckons there is some pretty foul smelling property available in Pinelands. Of course beauty is always in the eye of the beholder and not necessarily the nose. Then again there is not much for the eyes here either…
Pop in again next week for another dose of funny. Alternatively, if you think you have happened upon a sign worthy of this space please email it to [email protected]
