    That yellow sign seems a bit of a read  Prbably far too wordy to form a contract, read this

    A judge earlier this year made these comments


    "This signage contains a huge amount of wording, in varying fonts. There are
    between 650 ta 700 words, by my rough count. it's well known that the average
    reading speed of most adults is aground 200 to 250 words per minute. On the basis
    however that this is reading a sign and there are many technical words, it would
    probably take an average reader about 3 to 4 minutes to read everything on the
    sign. The key part however is found be found some 140 words into the text. It is in the
    middle of the sign and it says this, in capitals, then below it is a lower sized font
    referring to the £100:"   DJ Harvey


    and complain to your MP.

    DDJ Harvey's judgment has been somewhat debunked on appeal since.

    But was that not concerning abuse of process?  This is purely about signage.

    The appeal court stated that he was biased in his judgment, which rather taints the whole barrel of fish in my view.

    Yeah, forget it.  Can't update yet...but that's what HHJ Simpkiss decided along with some curious misunderstandings and assumptions.
