Can I be the pedantic one to point out that the Grantham shop sign has a typo?

Stationary means it’s not moving, which probably apt for a building like a shop.
Stationery is all the pens and paper and envelopes and stuff.

I already have my coat. Where’s the nearest exit?

You were quick there Heather. Hands up it was my mistake.

Part of me is tempted to leave it count the number who spot it. But fortunately I made plenty of transfers so it won't be too difficult to change one letter.

There’s an authenticity to having a badly written shop sign. A few unnecessary possessive apostrophes would add additional verisimilitude.

However, badly written shop signs appear to be more common today rather than 20 to 30 years ago - a sign of educational standards?

So this bloke goes into WH Smiths and says to the girl, “do you keep stationery?”

and she giggles, and says, “well, maybe for the first couple of minutes, but then I tend to wriggle around a bit”.


coat, hat, left behind in the rush…

a sign of educational standards?

Or mis-guided exceptations?

Do l spot a spelling mistake because auto correct is disabled?

Perhaps you should have gone to O'Donnell's?

It still need lamp posts, vehicles, spell check and figures to bring it to life. But you get the gist.

The left hand end of the layout is now taking shape. Which is a good thing given it will be venturing out to appear an exhibition early next year.
