I think you'll find that grrr.bark.woof is the what three words location.

This year's rebranding is replacing last year's signage with what three words. I spotted last year's blue sign in a a CRT skip beside this latest innovation.

... and on lifebuoys, as at Castleford Junction from brief visit this afternoon.

I noticed three around the lock and all of them say they are at:

 

 

///youth.elite.admit

 

One of the entertainments of What Three Words is that similar three words can be far distant one from another.

 

///youth.elites.admit

is somewhere in the east of China "not far" from Taiwan.

 

Otoh, the three lifebuoys are in different W3W locations, probably closer to

///that.likes.bottom

///belt.nurses.grape

 

There could be a C&RT peron with the job of choosing somewhere-near each lifebelt location with the most appropriate set of words. G'is a job ...

The sign I posted isn't what three words, it a tongue in cheek notice to the dogs

I think that lifebuoy might be something to do with a certain leadership election. The next square is ///inner.dozen.vote
