Does anyone know how much one of those diverted traffic signs weigh? I.e is it a two person job (I need to move it about 50 metres)

Thanks!

You werent planning on stealing one then??

When I was at college we thought it was hysterical to go out and nick road signs we used to keep them in this kids garage his dad was always abroad on business and we had the house to ourselves pretty much all year round, we had one of each we even had a bus stop and AHEM a set of temporary traffic lights! When his dad finally returned and went in his garage it was full of road signs he went mental and said we had to put them back where we found them, SO we found a skip and dumped the lot!

We used to drive round (everyone but the driver pissed up) and 3 of us would jump out and bundle them into the back of the car, we used to take all manner of tools with us to get them if they were screwed down!!

AHHHH happy memories!!! LOL ::lol::

LOL, we've been into getting smaller signs, like the High Voltage and No Dogs Allowed ones, although my hearts set on stealing a Neighbourhood Watch sign, just to prove a point!

And no, I am DEFINALETLY not a big strong boy, I can count my ribs to look at me, I am very weedy!

We had pretty much every sign there is! The huge ones are worth more points apparently!! The guy whose house it was used to be really proud of them, I spoke to him a few months ago and he's still got the bus stop! That was his pride and joy!

Yeah we had the tape and the barriers - we'd have nicked the hole in the ground if we could!! And those orange lights the ones you turn the top and they go off we used to take one a day!!

The traffic lights were fantasic - but it was luck really they'd been packed up and left by the side of the road with the generator and everything, we didnt want to be greedy so we just took one set!!

We started with cones and progressed from there, someone even had the blue light off a fire engine :eek: ....I really dont know how he got it, but I know it wasnt legally!!!
