People: if you tried looking at the sign, you would see that the museum does not open on a Monday. In fact, it has never opened on a Monday. It is written right there on the sign in plain English. And in plain Welsh, for that matter, for the linguistically blessed among us.

Omg, this reminds me of a conversation outside my library recently- it was 9.30 and we open at 10, and I was going across the road to get milk...

Random Lady: Excuse me, what time do you open?
Me: 10 o'clock
Random Lady: (sadly) Oh. Yes, that's what the sign said.
Me: No shit? (I didn't really say the last bit, rofl)

Soooo... apparently reading signs and actually taking them on faith is a different matter as well.
