“We do get loads of emails and tweets about the signs. Most positive, though not all,” he said.

“There are a group of workers over the road who email if we haven’t changed the sign in a while. It’s quite popular.”

“I find the signs myself, some are made up, some I see online, now people are sending me them too.”
