Garage around here with 'Keep Cleer' painted on the doors.
That reminds me of my early apprenticeship days.

I was designated to learn/work in an offshoot of the tool room in a
press shop. They had a cupboard there and on the front were the words

That stirred a memory of when I was about 10 years old - in nineteen hundred
& frozen to death.

A sikh family moved into a house a few street away, a rare thing in those
days. The word "gnikrapon" was painted on the wooden garage doors shortly
afterwards.

Me & my mates assumed that this was some mysterious Indian word & we all
wondered what on earth it meant. It took us months to realise he had tried
to write "noparking" in mirror writing & not got it right.

RAOTFLMAO

I didn't get it until right at the moment I had to scroll down.


Oh, come on Dave. Surely you know how long it takes to clean a keyboard
these days.
