Spotted this morning at Highbury & Islington tube station - a sign saying this:

Victoria Line - Delay's occurring Southbound

A swift wipe of my forefinger was all it took, ladies and gentlemen, to restore grammatical order to an otherwise chaotic universe...

Actually I thought a similar thing on the way to work this morning when I saw a cafe with things advertised on a blackboard (things like "ice cream's" iirc - though what they are doing advertising those on the coldest days of the year is another matter).

Unfortunately I was too shy to make the change. It did cross my mind how far one could get away with making changes on signs, when it wasn't something easily changeable like a black/whiteboard, and whether fixing grammatical errors could be counted as vandalism..
