Jimmy Gabriel's Halo Posted 29 March, 2011 Share Posted 29 March, 2011 Today whilst in Brighton I saw a plumber's van with the company name on which made me laugh out loud - U BENDER I kid you not. It also reminded me of a a scaffolding company which operates along the coast - can't remember their name but on the back of their lorry was the legend "Satisfaction guaranteed with every erection". There's also the cobbler's known as R. SOLES - they do exist. So, anybody seen any other funny company names ? And yes I know I lead a sad and lonely life and should get out more, thank you. And yes, I have waited several years just to post this, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintfully Posted 29 March, 2011 Share Posted 29 March, 2011 There used to be a barbers in Brighton called 'Fat Boy Trims' (done in the logo style n'all) which I thought was pretty good. Now there is a 'chain' (2 shops only I think) of off-licences called 'Wine Me Up'. No pun, but amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also used to live on Holland Road in Kensington and there was a garage and carwash called 'The Hand Job Centre'. Picture of sign here: When I lived in Stoke there was a carwash that had a sign outside reading "handjobs £5". After a year or two of this, the filling station down the road got one of those automated carwashes that has a drier as you drive out, they put up a sign reading "why pay £5 for a handjob down the road when we'll give you a blowjob for £3.50" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Bognor Posted 30 March, 2011 Share Posted 30 March, 2011 When I was in recruitment we had a american company client based near Chichester called Wayne Kerr Electronics. They were in Bognor. In Chichester, there is Beaver Tool Hire (which does make me giggle in its own right) They had an advertising board with "Trim your bush with a Beaver tool" advertising hedge trimmers for sale, but it received too many complaints.
