'We Are Not Amused',

was the official response,


to a road sign that had been 'doctored' by Reidar Johannes Søby from the Kreativiteket art group, he told The Local, 'People live in their ordinary lives and when they see this sign, maybe they can have a little smile on their face, that's all,'
the sign, designed to encourage people to use a 'silly walk' from the classic Monte Python sketch has the backing of the local council in the Ørje, but the notoriously bureaucratic Norwegian Public Roads Administration is not so amused, 'One should not use signs that can be confused with public signs,' section chief Elisabeth Bechmann told NRK, now I should not say this, but I wonder if the 'walk' sign will start to appear elsewhere?
