As the urgent necessity crops up, so do Signs in public-places. I have seen many of these through my days of traveling anywhere, somewhere… particularly in my own motherland – India. Some lines lapse into such Indian-ness, that the end result of the meaning goes to another level of thought! Here are some!
- Bar-man gone for delivery. His wife available for all types of services.
