Brilliant! I hope the "prankster" keeps it up and manages to evade the authorities. The plaques are clever and, obviously, effective. Now the world knows!

People need to have a sense of humor!

the one about closing your eyes is sadly true for most cities... many have laws against sleeping in public. unfortunately, oftentimes, if a business person were to do so on their lunch break, they wouldn't get a ticket. but if a bum did, they would. the ministry i work with in my city is beginning to fight these laws, especially since a federal judge deemed it unconstitutional to ticket a person for sleeping in public.

Do it

Sadly - rather than embracing the fun - the local council will most likely remove it as a public order offense. Fantastic.

Go For 'It'!

It should be present everywhere in this world :)

I think it's brilliant, myself. The world could do with more humour.

i think we need this in vancouver

I was in Chester a couple of years back. A young man was seated on a bench outside a church. As I passed him he uttered some racist remarks. I was taken aback as the setting appeared to be incongruent with his behaviour. This single incident left an indelible impression of Chester on me. However, it is by no means a generalisation of the locals there, as I was treated with courtesy and civility by others.

i like them.
