Back in the 70's I read an article about graffiti on posters and they gave 2 examples: "Jesus saves!" And written underneath "He couldn't do it on my salary" And a BA poster "Breakfast in London, lunch in Paris, dinner in Berlin" And written underneath "And luggage in Athens" Or once in my case, destination Aeroporto Pisa, luggage Aeroporto Roma, both courtesy of BA. |

I looked up Kilroivis hic erat but it’s all Greek to me I guessed what it meant and suspect that I was correct. No doubt, so did you. |

Saw this many years ago on the wall of a loo in some pub
Someone wrote "Is there intelligent life of Earth?"
And underneath it in different handwriting "Yes but I'm only visiting"

Seen by a friend many years ago
"Hooray, hooray and shout for joy
I was here before Kilroy!"
And underneath someone else had written
"Alas alack too soon you wrote
Kilroy woz ere but his pencil broke"

I did 👍🤣I have in the past read headlines that have obscure words in them and wondered why they didn’t write in plain English. If they want to appeal to the wider audience why paint yourself into a corner? Still as I always say “lifes too short to worry “ |
