I was waiting at the checkout in one of my local supermarkets and spotted this sign on a door.
What is it that has alarmed the door? Has it spotted someone wearing inappropriate clothes for shopping? Has it just heard the latest price of a loaf of bread and a pint of milk? Has it heard a rumour that this branch is closing down? Perhaps there are going to be cutbacks and the number of fire doors in stores is going to be reduced, inducing panic and alarm amongst fire doors across the land?
I know what it really means, but it made me smile…

Brilliant! I love the English language – it’s such fun
Hee hee! It is, isn’t it?
Hilarious!
It’s afraid they’re going to introduce even moreself serve tills, causing further chaos
Ha ha! Very good Speccy!
The door’s just heard about the recession!
Good one George!
I will never look at that sign again without laughing!
Hee hee!
It’s a quirky English thing isn’t it – signs like that always make me smil!
Thank heavens for signs like that to aleviate the tedium of the supermarket shopping!
