My favourite sign was an ear piercing while you wait.

On Peter Kay’s Car Share there were loads of funny little spoof roadside signs that you had to be observant to see. One was for a beauty salon that said “Brazilian waxing while you wait”

Weren’t they absolute gems! I had to rewatch them to see the many things I’d missed, if an excuse was needed to watch again the funniest tv in many years.

Nothing wrong, just different. Did you watch Fleabag?

A little bit of it,I found some bits very funny,a lot of it a bit strange,and I'm no prude,I think lots of comedy today seems to have become a little americanised,where they have to explain what's funny,I had a mate who used to tell you a joke and then go on for half an hour explaining why it was funny,even when we told him that we understood it...

You have got to love the French. There is a radio channel( based in Brussels I believe) which is called Radio FG. Throughout the shows reference is made to the station and the music played as Radio F*****g Good. Incroyable!
