You'd think that an estate agent would know how to spell the features of the houses that they are attempting to sell. What the hell's a "beday" ???

This is number one in a series of "Language Abuse" - amusing mis-spellings, misplaced apostrophes and suchlike, to provide a bit of a break from buses, coaches and things that float.

Not sure who to blame for this one. National Express, as it refers to their services, or First as it's in their travel shop.

[EDIT] - Actually, it could also be referring to the Greyhound services, so the blame is pointing more towards First.

I suppose this could be forgiven, as Gray Line are an American company - although it's normally the letter "U" that they feel unnecessary - not the letter "E".

Ok - what on earth are "moblie" roadworks. And just in case that's a typo, what would "mobile" roadworks consist of exactly?

As it happens, there was no-one doing any roadworks of any sort down this street, so the sign is completely redundant anyway.
