Signs in Trinidad and Tobago |
| In New Zealand,
to "get aggro" means to become aggressive. I can only assume
that the "agro" supplies in this case consist of rotten eggs to throw at
the object of one's aggression! |
 |
| A few of the roads
on Tobago are a bit rough, so it probably is good advice for you to check
your bones after renting a bicycle, just to make sure none of them are
broken!
Incidentally, note
the innovative pricing of this rental company - $5 per hour, but nothing
for 8 hours! |
 |
 |
If your bones or
any other body parts do get broken, then Tobago's the place to have it
happen.
Kidney transplant,
anyone? |
| Is a "working lad"
the male equivalent of a "working girl"? And if so, why's the
Salvation Army involved? |
 |
| In America, a "rubber"
is a condom, so you'll have to imagine the look on Americans' faces when
they see this sign. Saying that a rubber is "front end" just
seems to be stating the obvious, but what is an "industrial rubber" - one
can only suppose that it's an especially heavy duty one! And
let's not even think about "foreign used rubbers"! |
 |
| Still, if all of
those working lads and rubber users start to cause trouble, Trinidad and
Tobago have their own home grown solutions to the problem!
Yes, they'll take all of those wanton people, fry them and sell them to
unsuspecting tourists as fast food! And if you think that this
fast food restaurant's sign is an aberration, you're wrong - on Tobago
I saw a Chinese restaurant with "wanton soup" on the menu. |

Here's a blast from
the past for those of you who like me can remember the "pet rock" craze
which started in California (of course) in 1975.
And of course, one
advantage that "pet rice" has over a "pet rock" is that you can eat it
when the fad is over! |
| Fair warning for
anyone who dares to steal from this place (and who knows, if you do try
to rob it, perhaps God will hand you over to the Salvation Army to become
a working lad). |
