Logic leads me to think it says,
"The cross-bar is for ornamental purposes and pigeons only and must
not be used as a ladder support"

I thought I had just taken out enough detail on the photo to stop people
reading it (well done Adrian)

Nothing wrong with the camera thank you Mr Dennis "Bailey"

Heh, I checked the upload history of the Wiki to check if you'd already
uploaded the answer :-)

That was my initial thought too but, after checking the image properties
and the Fuji FinePix JV500 Andy had used, I decided that a better
photographer would have saved any need for 'guessing games'.

The shot was taken at its wide angle setting (6.8mm) rather than at its
zoom setting (20.4mm) which would have captured enough detail to make the
print readable.

I'm guessing Adam didn't notice the sticker until it was too late to
take a zoomed in shot of the lamp. A good photographer would have noticed
and took the extra 'detail shot' 'just for the record'.

You could read the sticker on the non zoomed in photo if you have access to
the 5Mb image.

I could not read the sticker when stood on the ground.
