that's awesome...Back where I used to live, over 8 years ago, they pulled down an advertising board on a newsagents, revealing an old 'Tobaconist' sign, so they left it like that. It's still there to this day.

It's amazing how uncommon an event this is.You keep seeing bits of the past peeping out from buildings.
Ther's an old ironmongery sign still visible on the side of a building on my road.

In my neck of the woodsthere's still a few buildings with the old painted adverts on the side for Hovis and suchlike.

Idon't believe the English language has a word that discribes works like gurning.Verbs where the pronounciation actually sounds funnier that the action it represents.

I've always wondered about that phrase.I've wandered around many woods in my time and never seen any necks.
