    That is because many vets use human drugs as they're cheaper. There were plans to try and stop this practice by the drug companies so they could charge three times as much for "species specific" drugs... never caught on though!

    Huh??????????????????

    What about those bottles that say "Shake before using" I was shaking so much I couldn't open the bottle:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Also, I came along a sign last week that said,"Dogs must be carried" Do you know, I couldn't find a bl**dy dog anywhere":rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:


    Ooh. We used to have a sign in our town which looked like it had sunk and then been tarmaced up to iyswim.

    It said:

    'All dogs must be' :rotfl::rotfl:

    and on the subject of amusing signs, I own a brilliant book entitled "f**K This Book" which is basically signs and notices that have been doctored with stickers....

    I cant post a direct link but have a look at f**kthiswebsite.com removing the asterisks VERY funny!

    This makes me sound so stupid..but when I was a teen, I had to wear a kilt like wrap around skirt with a kilt pin in it. It would blow out in the wind, and so many of the girls would pin the layers together, including myself. This mean it was hard to get it to sit right, especially the pleats. It took me about 10mins to get it to sit right, and once....after I'd done that, I noticed a crease down the front...just a small but deep one. And there was no way I was taking it off to spend another 10mins trying to get it to sit right (I already had to get up 6:15am in the mornings...if I had time to do that I'd have been getting up earlier even!).....so I tried to iron it on a very low heat over my knee. Needless to say, I burnt my knee and had a tip-of-the-iron-shaped mark on my knee for a few weeks!

    I once saw christmas lights that said "do not use inside or outside"

    The Scottish 24hr Tesco stores seem to have the English opening times listed below the open 24hours bit.....it's odd because they really are open 24hours a day 7 days a week up here...so having a sign saying they close at 4pm on Sunday is confusing.

    Again, not a food label, but I once saw a sign in a tattoo shop which read "piercings while u wait".
