My favourite was a public loo in Oxford where someone had written a huge poem all down the cubicle door. Best bit? Someone else had added detailed literary criticism. Only in Oxford. Have you seen better? Worse? Do tell.

There is a roundabout on the outskirts of the fine city named Derby. Like many cities, it has a featureless assembly of concrete bridge, car-wash, road-signs, car sales outlets, multi-storey gym, traffic-lights and tarmac. Unlike other cities, it has the proud municipality of Derby and its floral planters to liven up this conurbation.
Thus, constructed amongst the blandness, is a brave message: "DERBY IN BLOOM".
At least, that is what it was supposed to say. Unidentified parties, or perhaps nature itself, conspired to change the slogan, to the infinitely more incisive "DERBY IN GLOOM".
It required replanting. A culprit was never found.
Google found me some photographic evidence!
