I don't know which I found more amusing, the perfume shop that you can't imagine, or the text on the window saying, "Capture your essence with the poetry of perfume". Right...

The tiebreaker is "Runcible fragrances."

-?

Runcible spoon I understand. Edward Lear, "The Owl and the Pussycat". But runcible fragrances?

I repeat, -?


"Be seeing you."

...and that got me going.

"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling
Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will."
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon."


"Be seeing you."

The sign is fine, but somebody left their water bottle in a funny location. I certainly agree with the "do not drink".
