  1. A humped crossing is a pedestrian crossing on a speed bump. The penultimate one is another evacuation assembly point, fact fans!

  2. Thanks...
    I watched a car drive over the "hump crossing" & decided it was similar to "speed bumps" There are some in my neighborhood to slow down speeding cars...
    Actually, what I didn't mention was the green "speed dating" sign was outside what looked like a college dorm (or living facility)... I loved England & am having a fabulous time playing with the photos I took during our three week stay...
    It's great of you to check in... looking forward to more inspiration from the WeekWord bloggers!

  5. Carola - I added my email now... never paid attention to checking that box. Learn something new every day, eh! BTW - I love, love, love your pics...
    La Vie - I just showed the sign - the building was stunning - will try to post that in another entry - probably an "architectural details" post.

  6. The ladies room sign is too funny. I know it's not that mature of me to POINT OUT, but that sign is almost the braille equivalent of "woman."
