A quick swan around Googlefoo gleaned nothing. Does anyone produce signage suitable for Walmington-on-Sea? I'm thinking of the shops, butchers, grocers, funeral parlour and bank? any help would be most appreciated.

Harry, play around with Microsoft Word, or similar. Adjust sizes & fonts.
I don't bother with changing the background colours. I just give it a

Just tried a google image search - Model railway british shop signs - for example.

At the back of the Marigold Tea Rooms, Joe Walker's still ducking and diving!

"Right, so that's two chests of Lipton's Tea, 5lbs. of sugar and three boxes of custard creams. Leave it with me squire, know wot I mean?"
