The picture is faked. *The text was added with photoshop.

There are a number of similar pictures being circulated via e-mail
showing absurd or provacative text superimposed on various items.

One that I got recently was of a woman with a white shirt walking toward
the camera carrying a paper bag in her right hand and her wallet in the
other. *The words superimposed on the shirt say "I don't need sex - My
government ****s Me everyday". *The e-mail subject is "a woman in touch
with reality".

I dont think the price of the gas was faked on the sign though. *Holy
cow 9.59 for how much gas?

That is £0.95 for a litre of petrol = $1.50 /litre = $6/USgallon.
That was a few years back, It's more like $8 now.
There are places in Europe where it's even more expensive.

The van 'M' registration is Aug 1994 to Jul 1995.

The position of the number plate is probably OK. Occasionally I see the
back end of a large van or truck, and wonder where the number plate has
gone. Then I spot it, somewhere right up at the top. Even if it is
illegal today, it probably wasn't when the van was new.

The petrol prices are for around late 2005 to 2006.

The phone number is for the Haywards Heath area (Sussex).

Maybe a Photoshop expert could dissect the image (like they did with
Obama's birth certificate) and tell us if the words are genuine?
