Simply 23 very funny signs that have been messed around with for comic effect
It started when the great @mooseallain shared this on Twitter.

Here are 23 of the best.

‘The Queen Victoria’ is a pub near me. Once when the landlord went on hols, the local rearranged it to say ‘Quiet Erotic Haven’. Stayed like it for a couple of weeks.
