Keep out - or be shot! The sign on this bungalow bordering the busy B1049 between Histon and Cottenham says, "No trespass keep out or be sho.." Just discernible are the last two letters 'ot', but someone must have kindly pointed out to the owner that it should be 'shot' instead of 'shoot'. But he hasn't got round to repainting the 't'. Perhaps he prefers to leave you wondering.
