I thought you might like this one; by far the worst apostrophe abuse I have ever seen.I think this is made worse by the fact the "agent of the new" has neglected to use apostrophes to acknowledge the missing letters either side of the 'n'.
Also, what the hell does "sweet and things" mean?

What the hell is an "OFF LICENCE"?
This looks familiar. Any idea about the location? Think I may have seen this shop in Brighton.
Thanks.
I think I'm right in saying that Jeremy lives in Brighton, although I don't know the location of the shop in the photo.
I agree: what the hell DOES "sweet and things" mean??
