Subject: RE: BS: Funny Names of Businesses
I worked for a while in the steel industry in Sheffield (UK). At one time there was a steel products company named, "Shufflebotham and Co. (Wire-drawers)".

There was a fish-and-chip shop in York (UK again) named, "Frier Tucks"

And, I kid you not, while working in Southern Africa more than twenty years ago, I saw a car in Harare (Zimbabwe) belonging to "The Central African Driving School and Panel Beaters Ltd". (Panel Beaters = US Body and Fender Shop).
