The sign was located near a very wide brook that flows through the area and the sign said: +---------------------+ | NOTICE TO VISITORS | | UNFIT FOR DRINKING | | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | +---------------------+ Now, I didn't bother to read the stuff below (which I marked with little xs) because I am quite fit for drinking. I've been working out for weeks. I just felt a little sorry for those visitors who are not fit for drinking. -- "It's just a sign of the times" Peter Merchant -- Bryan Ferry
