We live less than a five minute drive from J28 of the M1 and it is a road we travel frequently.

There is some kind of chapel en route; and for the first time today, I noticed the large sign outside which reads: Last services before M1.smiley - rofl

The best one I have seen says "Do not leave your valuables in your car. Uniformed police on patrol" or words to that effect!! I will make a note of the full wording next time I pass it, as it makes me laugh every time. I might follow Nigel and put it on my wall!!
