Dumped by telegraph pole
A woman named Jennifer has become the talk of Sydney after she was unceremoniously dumped by telegraph pole.
In the early hours her supposed lover erected five separate signs on Barrenjoey Rd, Avalon, reports the Australian Daily Telegraph.
His feelings started out as romantic: “Jennifer, will you marry me?” the first sign said. But the next one said: “Just joking, we’re breaking up.” And the following one added: “You have six days to get out.”
Locals were divided over whether the increasingly bitter signs were a joke or whether to feel sorry for Jennifer.
“When I first saw it I was just on my bike, I was laughing my head off,’” retailer Jeff Kahler said. “There has been really good signs but I reckon it is one of the best, it took my mind off driving.”
Avalon resident Rhiannon Johnston said: “I think it is a prank. If not, it is really mean or Jennifer really screwed up big time.”
