If only Silverbullett was down under
« on: May 09, 2019, 11:17:38 am »
Australia's latest A$50 note comes with a big blunder hidden in the small print - a somewhat embarrassing typo.

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) spelled "responsibility" as "responsibilty" on millions of the new yellow notes.

The RBA confirmed the typo on Thursday and said the error would be fixed in future print runs.

But for now, around 46 million of the new notes are in use across the country.

The bills were released late last year and feature Edith Cowan, the first female member of an Australian parliament.

What looks like a lawn in the background of Ms Cowan's portrait is in fact rows of text - a quotation from her first speech to parliament.

I trained as a printer and saw so many guys get the boot for  print typing errors.I met this guy who got a signwriting job instead of me.He was in my job mouthing out of him and signwriting on the door of a company van. He asked us how do you spell merchandising and I told him merchantising.He painted it on the door and the door had to be resprayed twice. Heard the effer got fired later.....boxbottle

A shop on Deans Grange road opposite the cemetary, got a new sign a good few years ago. Used to be called "The Bungalow". The new sign continues to this day as "The Bugnalow".
"So look into the mirror, do you recognise someone, is it who you always thought you would become, when you were young?"
