As you enter Castletown, Isle of Man, from the north, this great painted sign greets you. I'm sure it has been there many decades, although I wonder exactly when we started to use DIY in normal conversation.
It's certainly a striking advert.
The building seems to have grown up over time, since 1875, according to the website, the side view being a sea of corrugated asbestos sheet and wood. The slope suggests to me that the place has evolved, and that just makes it more interesting.
You can see more on the company website.
Someone seems to have cut a few trees down since Google visited.
