This way up?

Post by Airspeed »

Spotted a tall van parked in town today.
At the top left corner of the back, was a very professional - looking statement:

I wanted to ask the driver his profession, but he was gone too soon.

Might have been a flight sim modeller?
Cheers, Mike.

The things you see while on the road. :lol: Here's something I see each day while driving to work. On the right the 'Casket Store'. Three doors down 'Boxes To Go'. :$

I always thought that one was funny too. Worst part - I bought boxes from that Boxes to Go the last time I moved. :)

Hey Mike
:hello:

just a guess....
was the van covered with a wrap? I'm speaking of the advert vinyl graphics applied on the sheet metal.
There is a protective layer on the outer surface of the rap to protect it. there are labels on them to help the installer identify what goes where..

perhaps it wasn't removed??

*-) Maybe he was cling-wrapped, running low on oxygen, and that's why he took off so quickly.
Cheers, Mike.

8) JOE! 8)
I KNEW you meant the VAN being wrapped....the MAN was inside it.....(and may have been running out of oxygen, because he was in a sealed environment)
wot's "cliggy" :dunno:
And no, it's not my EARS, I don't have speakeasy attached to this forum, I have to READ everything. :worried:
Now, go to work, and if you come home with spotted dick and floosies, there'll be no supper for you, young man. :rant:
Cheers, Mike.
