I did see a scaffolding company in Nottingham which offered 'the biggest erections in town'.

Also in Nottingham there was a Chinese restaurant called 'Chase the Dragon'. I never went there for a meal, but I bet they guaranteed you'd come back for more.

Here in Stralsund we have a company driving around in these vans. I had a serious double take moment when I first saw one with the ELEKTROBOGS written all over it...

(just in case you are wondering - they are electricians, NOT plumbers)

I once had dealings with a Mr. Peter Ennis of the Ennis Paper Company. He always spelled his name out in full; never with just his first initial and last name.

I prefer the concept of narrative causality.
