Melbourne has more than its fair share of interesting and colourful signs. As someone who only moved to Australia relatively recently, I think part of my fascination with Australian signs is that they are unfamiliar to me. I did not grow up with their colours, shapes or styles and in that sense I find them culturally and aesthetically very interesting.
I think signs can tell us much more about a culture than just the intended utilitarian messages that they convey.
In addition to that we have here the ‘adapted sign’ which is also a feature of Melbourne. That in itself lends a whole a new dimension. Most of the adapted sign’s I’ve seen are too raw to post, but this one was tame and made me chuckle when I saw it.
[P.S. I have no personal position on how many kids anyone has, that’s up to them.]
