The Albert Bridge sign is REAL. The Albert Bridge is noted for not being very strong. That is why this sign is located at the bridge. It is one of the more lit up bridges in London, partly so boats do not run into it !

The pub sign was in front of a pub in Burton-on-the-Water in the UK

I can't speak to the accuracy of Google Translate, but it appears to read:

"you are on a farm watch out for machinery have a good walk"

Roughly.

You are in an agricultural area so keep yer eyes open for agrocultural machinery. Have a nice walk.

It is a path alongside the River Aude just outside Carcassonne Charles and was one of our favourite walks. It's a lovely part of the river and a place of peace amongst the hectic of a French town. The tractors used in the vines are small and quite narrow. They remind me of the type of cars they showed in a Laurel & Hardy film... They had to be narrow to fit between the vines.

Pretty close ND and captures the meaning. The vintners don't really care what they are doing as far as watching out for others. They seem to think that you will just get out of their way, a very good idea!

Tell me about it. I looked all over and finally found a place online with rats in stock. Ordered a box but the package is stuck in Omaha and it's been a week without updates. This supply chain thing sucks.

(I'm kidding.)
