I am not sure a Mini or a 2CV or other car could get up or down those steps! LOL

SIGNS - Sign Sign Everywhere A Sign, Do This, Don't Do That, Can't You Read The SIGN?! www.city-data.com/forum/42098122-post901.html

Welcome to the village of Banstead in Surrey – and here’s a fine sign which illustrates the village’s long history. But who’d have thought that this attractive traditional design could have created controversy among the locals? Read on…
Clockwise from the top left: A woolpack, representing Banstead’s historic association with wool and sheep; All Saints parish church, which dates from the 12th century; a wheatsheaf, commemorating Banstead’s farming roots; the 18th century Old Well; and finally, the extensive lavender fields, which attract visitors from miles around.
And it’s this depiction of the lavender fields that has caused the raised eyebrows, because purists say that the fields aren’t in Banstead at all; they’re just outside the boundary and actually lie within the neighbouring London Borough of Sutton. And, it has to be said, the purists are right.
But then there’s the question of Banstead’s status as a village. It’s not a village at all, but actually a small (and very pleasant) town with a population of around 16,000. The ‘village’ refers to the half-mile long high street and adjoining roads... the scenes of my long-ago childhood escapades.
This is why I patronie the Nicollet Diner . . . it is also open 24/7/365, genuine clientele and great owners. I met both of the guys when they first opened. The place offers good value, great food, and terrific staff.
There aren't many places in MPLS or St. Paul that are opened 24/7 and since I am from Chicago, I find places open all hours are the basic necessities of urban living.. . . indeed, maybe life itself.
They do have a full bar in a separate back area . . . food is served there as well along with entertainment and Happy Hour.
Step through a small door into a cozy small little cubby to the funky "Muffin Top Cafe" for coffee and "dolce".
I think the owners are geniuses, personally. It really is a community gathering place where all are welcome.
An old roll I had stuck in a drawer, undated. A restaurant lost in time. Nothing but the sign remains.
Chances are if your luggage wound up here if it was lost by an airline in the United States. The company has a contract with most airlines to purchase unclaimed baggage to resell in the store and on line.
While waiting for a replacement head from Hong Kong for my poor Friday Night Frug Poppy, I have decided to redress Sign of the times blonde Poppy in her lovely black ensemble. I think the jewels and hair ornament go well with the classic look.
Someone had erected this blunt but eloquent plea to the youth of Glen Innes NSW to refrain from putting graffiti on the door or building of the closed but restored railway station. Imploring respect - what a good idea. Wonder if it will work in the long run. This sign is that seen on the adjacent photo of the door etc. on the railway platform.
By the way, it is a “railway station” not a “train station”!
Glen Innes, NSW.
