I've always wondered about sign writers. I think it must be a "line of demarcation" thing. Your client can't spell but you can always fall back to "we wrote exactly what you asked for." If you correct it, you risk them complaining.
@cougar2 I'm sure that ^ is my photo (and foot) from the Disproportionately Cross thread! Think I've deleted it from my phone, but I know exactly where I took it in Wolverhampton City centre. So pleased to see you've resurrected it, good effort. "Copyr ight" not claimed, anyone can reuse it...
I'm 99% sure I culled it from Facebook, so it's coincidentally gone full circle.

It looks like someone's had a wee out of the front door, in 8 bit graphics 😀
As a curtain maker it always irks when a blind, curtain or curtain rail/track is wonky, unhooked or the ends have come off the fitment.
So many places from posh hotels to holiday accommodation have this problem. Many times hubby and I have stood on a wobbly chair to try and fix the problem.
I'm staring at a curtain now, where one hook has come away from the rail, but It would need a proper ladder job and it's not my house.
