Funny No Parking Signs - For Boats!

The Last Word in No Parking Signs

Absolutely No Bottom Washing Permitted

Where did this notice really come from?  A laundrette?  A street in Washington? 

The truth: This sign was seen at a boat launching ramp in Hingham, Massachusetts, USA.

Whitebeam 'No Parking' Tree

A newly discovered species of tree has been named 'No Parking'. What happened was the National Museum of Wales set about finding new species, or sub-species of trees. They discovered a new whitebeam and named it 'Sorbus no parking'.

The team did not confine their search to Wales and they found this new tree growing in a layby at Watersmeet in North Devon, UK.  As this was a layby, a local official had once nailed a 'No Parking' sign to the trunk of this particular tree.

When they listed the no parking whitebeam in Watsonia, the official journal of the Botanical Society of the British Isles, they chickened out and called it Sorbus admonitor (Admonish tell-off).

Two anniversaries coincided with this search for new species in March 2009, the bicentenary of Charles Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his seminal work 'Origin of the Species' in 1859.

Incongruous Flood and No Footway Sign

It never rains, but it pours.

Not So Funny Parking Notices

All give and no take.
As nurses in a National Blood Service van were taking blood from volunteer blood donors, so a jobsworth was issuing a parking.  The parking attendant informed the amazed driver that he did not have permission to be in a parking bay.  One anonymous donors said he had been giving blood in the same spot for 4 years without trouble.  Zero public spirit.

Yellow Line Fever.
Mike Fox of Salisbury Road, West Ealing, London, kindly agreed that contractors could move his car so that they could paint yellow lines.  A waiting traffic warden pounced and issued a parking ticket in the spot where the contractors had parked Mike's car.

One morning Michael Dickinson of Hendon, parked his car perfectly legally.  The road had never had any parking restrictions.  However, when he returned in the afternoon, he could see that a yellow line had been painted up to his car, and furthermore a warden had slapped a parking ticket on his windscreen.  Zero sense of natural justice.

Would Parking Be The Only Thing You CAN Do?

No Parking Yourself on The Floor
