Burger Van

[iansums]

This morning I drove past a burger van in Ferndown with the name:

 

'Ooh, nice baps'

 

Made me smile. Any other amusing shop / company names?

[Turkish]

BJ Champion, seen a few of thier vans around. Scoffolding company i think, great with erections.

[Johnny Bognor]

At the Oving traffic lights, on the Chichester Bypass, you can see Beaver Tool Hire, which always makes me giggle.

 

They usually do some funny road side advertising and a couple of years ago they had the strapline "Trim your bush with a Beaver Trimmer" underneath a female mannequin. After many complaints, they had to take it down.

 

EDIT: Just found a picture

 

 

More recently, they had Darth Vader with a garden fork along with the strapline "Use the Fork"

Fork n' Chips in Woolston is quite good.

 

Noticed their windows were smashed in last week. Either the work of someone who hates puns, or possibly that of militant local who believes the rumours they've heard about the owner.....
