Sorry Anna, my sarcasm and irony clearly ended in a different galaxy from you, I was taking the pee out of the newspaper. Why you thought I was accusing the forum of setting the whole thing up is a mystery to me as that never occurred to me at all.

No problem Anna, you were correct about me complaining about the paper using any old junk except my sign story but was not having a pop at the site at all.


Now what on earth is the old signs replaced headline about? Something tells me that's a little photoshop creation although I have come across many real headlines almost that naff they wouldn't all have been in the one paper or they'd have gone the same way as the gun. Got me for nearly a minute though before the penny dropped.

Admittedly I would have preferred to spend longer on the 'old signs' mock-up - typeface, perspective, shadow.. a poor effort, but alas work* meant my time was short.




*actually I was planting runner beans
