# N E?
what's so hard about writing 'any'? if you want it to make sense, write properly!

www.triskele.com/fonts.html has fonts that look just like the ones on roadsigns - this site was found by Missing and I bookmarked it.

# I've got it bookedmarked at work
it's one of those things that sooner or later, will come in handy.
A bit like the things that end up in the attic

Like the things you've invariably just thrown out because you've been hanging onto them for aaages

# Don't get me started on the whole "Turning into your dad" thang...
Although, to be honest, I don't think my Dad's ever worn makeup or PVC...

# Radio 4 myself

listen to Scrawn and Lard on R1 then quickly switch over to R2 for Steve Wright at 3, plus I know exactly when the comedy stuff comes on on R2 on a saturday......<shakes head>

# Yeah...
Radio 2 is pretty good isn't it?
Could be a new ad campaign - Radio 2, the choice of the discerning Goth...

# More like
Radio 2, for the discerning goth who's trying to escape from the mindless ever repeating shite that is the R1 playlist :)

# How nice for you
Have you considered using cut'n'paste, or "pootling" as it's becoming known?

# normal good old Helvetica

# yeah, but
Helvetica is still a commercial font so you've got to rely on the free alternatives.....

# You mean
like Arial, and Verdana, and Tacoma, and stuff like that - hard-to-obtain fonts?

# don't even mention
comic sans

oops!
(I helped save b3ta! kitty meow meow, Wed 9 Apr 2003, 0:31, archived)
# Comic Sans is perfect for older kids with
slow learning ability as well as kids of infant age who are just learning to read/write; over here it's the recognised font de jour for primary schools and other learning centres. It's just a pisser when adults use it thinking 'it's kewl'.

100% FACT!
