Which way is up? Medway's sign of the times

Giant signs telling people where to park recently infuriated several of our Rainham readers.

But it’s not the only bit of roadside furniture stopping Medway motorists in their tracks.

The latest blooper (just click on 4 to see it) was taken by KM staff photographer Barry Crayford in Corparation Street Rochester. Office wags say the promotional banner displayed there for Jools Holland's Castle Concert this summer is aimed at the Australian market.

In Dock Road, Chatham, drivers probably have to swing around the mini-roundabout a couple of times before they’re able to take in all the detail.

And the famous statue of postal pioneer Thomas Waghorn in Railway Street, Chatham has been getting people lost for years. His finger is said to point in the direction of the best overland route to India. The furthest most reach is the nearest public convenience.

Have you seen any other signs - road or otherwise - in the Medway Towns and beyond which have had you chuckling or hopping with rage.
