As I was enjoying Arts Fresco up in Market Harborough a couple of weekends ago, I meandered down an alley and past a service entry to a building. A hand-written sign on the door caught my eye:

No Entry, Deep Excavation (Thats a Hole) Inside

I love the added definition of ‘deep excavation’ – that’s a hole. How very kind of the sign maker to ensure that the danger described by lofty verbiage was not lost on unwary potential trespassers.

And just in case anyone viewing the sign cannot read English, there is also an explanatory graphic highlighting the risk:
