There's a local coach company in this area called Soul's, a while ago the company came to belong to the son, and he thought it would be good to put his initial in front of the name, Richard he was called, R. Soul's coaches, the name trips off the tongue quite well dont you think?

Hmmm, might have to moderate myself now.

And the Mrs n I thought we were the only ones that thought "ride the beaver" on the front of a bus was funny AND had more than one meaning, i have a feeling the bus company knows exactly what they were doing with their slogan.

When I was a Business Advisor I had a guy come in who wanting to be a painter/decorator specialising in wallpapering. He was gonna call himself "Well Hung Decorators". Nearly p****d myself laughing. Another one was an ironing service called "Creased Lightning"

Also there is a firm around here who sell window blinds. On the back of their van it says "Blind man driving" Another one that makes me smile!
