A few years later & a few more old signs later they decided to keep make a supposedly perfect sign that was brilliant and showed every direction etc etc. and they decided to keep it up to standard and make it look nice.
However it was that far down the road that it missed a road that turned off to the heart of the village & so many people from the village complained however the village was only small and never grew enough to matter to the extent they'd renovate the original sign. Years later the newest sign was still there and as flashy as ever. Finally the original sign had a little cleaning and some of the weeds were cut back, it was inevitable that they would grow back again leaving the sign in the same old tattered state of partially doing a job but not fulfilling the needs of the people that lived in the village. Now and then people stopped by to clean it up and put in time & effort, including the occasional new villager that just moved there... Pl is like a signpost, it did the job but now nearly all of the original villagers have left & moved elsewhere.
