I think now gone, but for many years at the top of Highgate hill the local laundrette was called:

"The Wishy Washy, Splishy Splashy Chinese Laundry"

There's "A-Team Welding" near me.

If ever I'm in trouble and no-one else can help with my welding, I'll be certain to give them a ring.

A few years ago I would regularly see an open back lorry running around with 'DUXASS ROOFING' written proudly on the side.

It was quite a while before it dawned on me that the name might be more than it seemed. Even now I am not sure.:smile:

I had thought of running a seasonal, budget camping store: "winter of discount tents".

We have a large company called Beaver Tool Hire - always appeals to the intellectual side of my sense of humour

Domino Building Contractors. Not immediately funny, but not very wise either.

User10571 and I passed a contractor's van with wrecked front suspension and a wheel hanging off on the road into Dartford yesterday. Immediately above the wheel the door carried the legend 'FULLY INSURED'. We might have stopped and taken a snap or two, but....

On a slightly different tack, outside a dodgy looking, scruffy kebab shop was the sign

'Eat here, you won't eat anywhere else'

I am sure they were right.

I wish I had taken a pic too.:biggrin:

They would all get my business.

My local favourite is 'Brewers Droop' home brew supplies shop. Then there's always Stiff Nipples air-con and refrigeration contractors.
