Double Whammy: I'm not sure which of the two signs is the sillier:

"Unicorn Centre" which must be where unicorns congregate, or

"UNAUTHORISED PARKING AT ANY TIME", which suggests that you can park there at any time as long as you don't have the authority to do so.  But also logically implies that if you do have authority then you can't park there.*

*This of course creates a Schrödinger conundrum because you now don't have authority so you can park there. :lol:  My head hurts.

Curious! What does the other side say?

30 (mph) as the road goes into a village. It would take a brave/foolhardy/stupid driver to attempt anything like the (60 mph) speed limit 'allowed' by the signs. But then it is a limit and roads have to be driven with 'due care and attention' so the actal speeds which are drivable on such roads are quite low. Sometimes its a series of short runs from passing place to passing place as I discovered.

Third line: in French : metttre au verre litterally : to go for a glass instead of mettre au vert : to go green.

Last line: moins le quart litterally quarter to, but can be minus a quarter... at the bar

This is a crop from a snap which was taken primarily because I loved - and was amused by - the banner / sign hanging on the wall of the building.

"Rumble in Rouen! : Gustave 'Baby Face' Flaubert Vs Guy "The Hunter" de Maupassant. The Greatest Fight in History"......😸......

Flaubert was native the town and de Maupassant, born circa 30 miles to the north and some 30 years his junior, was destined to become his protégé. Both are held to be amongst the greatest writers from France.

The 'Librairie le Rêve de l'Escalier' (in this case) was a much-loved second hand bookshop in the town centre but it closed its doors for good in 2023. Not sure why...

Incidentally; I believe that the 'Cutty Sark' life-belt placed in the window was a promotional item produced to advertise the whisky which bears that name.
