# That was supposed to be a list...
Was very impressed with an artic trailer I saw on the M6 many years ago. It had 'Christian Salvesen' written on it in very big letters. On one side. Inevitably someone had altered the other side to read 'Christ Saves.' Must've taken ages as the letters were each a good two foot square.

One for the older kids amongst you who remember their science lessons. We were told regularly that 'nature abhors a vacuum.' I had completely forgotten until I met someone who had it elegantly signwritten across the front of his hoover.

A now-demolished wall en route Paddington station used to bear the marvellous legend:

'Far away is close at hand in images of elsewhere'.

The oldest Graffiti I have ever seen is at Tattershall Castle in Lincolnshire. Prisoners that were kept there used to scratch their names into the stonework. I think the noldest one that they've verified is from a bout 1640, cool.
