Signs of the times...

Walked across from London Bridge station yesterday on my way to the office and was confronted by this sign as I left the station which made me laugh. (sorry about the poor quality camera phone pic!)

Obviously this is designed to stop passengers from waving at the train drivers, but it's more fun to misinterprete it as a piece of general advice on the mental health of train drivers... On the whole I guess it's probably a good thing that train drivers aren't off with the fairies, chasing giraffes or talking to themselves whilst driving hundreds of tonnes of fast moving metal! ;-)

More misleading signs on the otherside of the bridge too, a man with a placard bearing the message,"The End is close, turn to Jesus."

I'm not quite sure what this is supposed to indicate either, as, according to my Christianity inclined friends, no one is supposed to know the exact date of the end of the world anyway. Anyone claiming the opposite has, so far, been quite demonstrably wrong, unless as the late Douglas Adams pointed out, the end of the world has already happened and we were all to drunk to notice!
