Wentworh Avenue eh?

hehe

I’d like to think a number of people involved in the installation of these signs DID notice the error but thought it was amusing (and would give the rest of us a small chuckle) and thus left it. I mean how many people would’ve handled these mispelled signs? From the manufacturing line to the workmen who stuck it into the ground.. someone would’ve realised.

That makes it all the more entertaining to me… knowing someone out there is happy to know that the rest of us are having a laugh 🙂

Still can’t find the naked person in Kinston Tower. Which window?

Prendergast Street in Curtin is “Prendergast” at one end, and “Prendegast” at the other, just to keep everyone on their toes…

not strictly canberra related, but my paternal grandparents live in a street one end called ‘d’arcy ave’ and the other ‘darcy ave’ – someone was saving the apostrophe for a rainy day…

Who are the Brisbane Boncos?

Vaguely remember noticing this a couple of years back when I lived in the area – wonder if someone will be down there with a black texta tomorrow?

Took me a bit of eyesight voodoo to pick up what you were talking about. Wonderful (or not) how the brain visualises the T automatically and doesn’t pick up on these things easily.

True. I had to look a few times before I saw it.

Awesome – good pickup.

Seems the signs folk in Roads ACT are having a really bad time of it lately.
Half dozen mistakes with various street names just within the Gungahlin Town Centre.
