Someone did not check the spelling on this gas works warning sign! ;) (this is a just for fun thread and not meant to be taken as a serious issue).

This is a photo I took on March 7 2017 of a gas works warning sign on Regent Street. For some reason the misspelling use of 'Roundhey' instead of 'Roundhay' seemed very obvious on just an initial cursory look at the sign. The use of 'Busses' instead of 'Buses' also looks odd (on checking I found that buses is the correct spelling in modern dictionaries but busses may also appear in old ones).
