World Signs, sayings

[teachnlearn]

Been so concentrated creating material from the view point of living in the USA. I realized today there are people on the board that aren't from the US. SO;

What favorite saying, signs, scrolls, toys, gadgets, do you folks do that aren't in the USA. RJF

Oh all kinds of things except eagles the American flags they don't sell well here in UK in fact I don't sell any flags but lots of dogs, dragons, prehistoric mamals, angels, mancave signs, lady shed signs, she shed signs that should keep you busy for a bit. Only kidding thanks for the offer put them out there see what happens. Thanks again. Roly

This is a web image but I saw a lot of these in Australia. I think the middle sign means wombat --

While on temporary assignment in England, I didn't even try to drive - I always rode with someone or took a bus or taxi. The an outstanding feature of British traffic is the roundabout -- Here is the sign for the "Magic Circle" --

        

Here is an aerial shot of the actual roundabout --

The road sign is for The Plough roundabout in Hemel Hempstead (affectionately nicknamed  The Magic Roundabout after a children's TV programme).  I drove through that every day for over 20 years when I worked for Kodak who's UK HQ was right beside the roundabout.

 

 

The photo though is for the other Magic Roundabout in Swindon as Roly correctly said.  Just for fun, I found a short one minute piece of  drone footage  of the Hemel Hempstead roundabout showing it in action.

That Jarman Park sign is the one I saw when we went through that circle. I could never figure how my partner knew her way through it. I learned that cabbies over there had to memorize routes to keep their licenses. I bet those circle drove them nuts. I found the aerial view on the web, also. I didn't know there was more than one "magic circle".
