Has anyone seen this sign on Wantage Road? It’s reading week now and so,  can someone tell me what’s wrong with this sign? ---

You would suspect that a graffiti artist would have obliterated the offending letter by now, but then again, they are probably not the most astute bunch. ---

I would be curious to know who painted this sign.  Next time someone walks that way, please look to see if the ‘artist’ did (or should I say: dared) write his/her name…and let us know so that we may appoint a tutor from the local library.  By the way, do we still have adult reading classes in this town…sorry 'City"? Good thing this sign is on Wantage Road (where it truly belongs) and not at Cow Bay where every debarking tourist would bend in half with laughter. ---

Good “think” it’s probably just a typo. But two typos on the same sign is just sloppy. Where is it on Wantage Road?  I’ll go snap a photo on the way to work tomorrow. ---
