As reported on the BBC news website, a Welsh road sign written in both English and Welsh; the English version read:

 

"No entry for heavy goods vehicles. Residential site only"

 

the Welsh, when translated to English, read:

 

"I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated"

 

That's right, someone emailed the translator and got a reply and assumed that it was the translation - no, it was the out of office message!

 

Nicely done.
