Sandwich Board

Written on 3 April

A sandwich board sat stationary on the high street advertising the latest mobile phone deals.

No one paid it much attention, and it was left contemplating a world where it was almost obsolete, and wishing it had been digitised when it was apparent that was the way the wind was blowing.

Then a young gentleman wearing white sneakers and a mildly offensive t-shirt kicked the sandwich board over, laughing heartily with some friends as he did so.

The sandwich board lay there for hours, all the shoppers ignoring its plight.
