    I first did a sign for this pub a couple of years ago (Was it that long ago :yikes: )

    Well I’ve just done 2 new signs for them in a similar manner to the first one, the first picture shows the existing swing sign and as you can see its gone off badly, the second shows the new sign that I made with digital pictorial of welly, vinyl and gold leaf lettering, oh and I went a little bit over the top when I made this monster it weighs about 30 pounds and the old one I had to cut of with a disk cutter up a ladder, wobbly sign post and windy day about 7.5 on the pucker factor the sign’s 43″ x 47″, the other one is a similar size but was a damn sight easier to fit.

    looks great mate.. really smart.. much better than the old style, without a doubt.
    really like the one on the wall. the contour cut sign really makes it more appealing i think. thanks very much for taking the time to post 😉

    I tried to find the Dr. Evil post in here, Forbie, honest.
    Someone had altered Stephen’s head onto Dr. Evil’s body,
    if memory serves. (I think Rob Lambie was Mini-Me!)
    So I always just call him that now.
    He is a great sign guy, IMO.
    Love…Jill
