Villagers have made fun of an unintentionally rude drawing on a boot fair sign.
The notice caused a stir after appearing in Wingham, situated between Canterbury and Sandwich, advertising a jumble sale “with a kick”.
Some residents claim the child-like drawing, understood to resemble a boot, had a more phallic appearance.
The message on the board, written in orange chalk, states: “Country boot fair with a kick.
“Wingham Village Hall.
“Saturday, November 16. Starts at 11am. Free entry.”
Commenters on social media have quipped the picture looks more like genitalia than footwear.
One wrote: “Is it sponsored by Lovehoney?”
Another joked: “Perhaps it's a ‘specialist’ boot fair”, while someone else posted: “I never go to boot fairs, but may make an exception on this one.”
One commented: “Stand proud Wingham. I have a feeling this may go viral.”
