I've come across two examples this week here in Düsseldorf of unfortunate signing.

The first example is a language mismatch between English and German. In German, 'bad' means bath or bathroom. However, in this context it doesn't look too good.

And the real winner, some flags advertising a German boat event ('Boot Düsseldorf') which don't read very well the other way round.

Last year we were in Switzerland, the English kids were desperate to get hold of T-Shirts with "Swimming Bath Supervisor" written on the back in German.

I will have to look out for them if I am ever in Hervey Bay again - would make a great addition to the Dunny Appreciation Group on Facebook
