1. Direction signs are often far ahead of the junction (like 500m); then when you reach the junction there may be no sign at all.

2. At many junctions there is a mass of signs to towns, scenic sights, B&Bs etc. Often the sign for the place you want is not visible until you have actually started along that road.

3. A 'PARKING' sign (towards the left) was placed about 10m before the road it referred to. Fine. But we were coming from the other direction, and the other side of the sign also pointed to the parking (to the right). So that sign was 10m BEYOND the road it referred to. Did it refer to that road, or to a road just beyond that you couldn't see? Anyway, we missed it.

4. "NO OVERTAKING -- GHOST ISLAND AHEAD"

5. "OIL SPILLAGE AHEAD". There were quite a few of these signs; I think they must have had them printed and then they had to use them somewhere.

6. About a city park: "The park was first thought about in 1896, but due to lack of funds was not started until 1967."

7. On a pub door: "BEER GARDEN UPSTAIRS".

8. "OPEN NOW FOR LUNCH" painted on a restaurant window.

9. We went along a road that was very bumpy due to peat diggings. After 5 km of this, there was a sign: "UNEVEN ROAD".

10. They paint their signs on the road in the opposite order from other countries. So we found:

SLOW
VERY

PARK
CAR
