Dad joke

That’s awful

Had to go round the roundabout again to catch a piccy of this one in Basingstoke the other day.

There used to be a company down in Hants that was called BJ Champion……… his son now runs it and it’s sadly not funny any more. Think his first name is Dave

On that theme, there used to be a vehicle body repairers in Hull and they had the slogan

'We take the dent out of accident'.

When we were in Lancashire there was a company who emptied septic tanks and they had a sign on the back of the truck which read 'There are no stools left in this vehicle overnight'

When Christine was a self employed Chiropodist I wanted her to call the business

'William the corn curer'

A few years ago in the Wealdstone area I used to see  the "IMPACT" school of motoring cars driving about town.

[McCabe-Thiele (Ted)]

There was a driving school in Derby in the 1960's run by Brian & Mimi Hazard - the 'Hazard School of Motoring'  as a student I did some weekend part time work as an instructor in dual control Vauxhall Viva (HA). In those days there were no minimum age limits.

Loving all these Ironic names. There was a dance school here teaching various types of dance and the couple of teachers that ran the school was Mr and Mrs Stiff.

My ex used to work with a lady called Dianne stuff. Always called herself Die. She got a mention on Harry Hill on the telly as she was an archaeologist

I learnt to drive in the early 80’s with a driving school called 'The impact school of motoring'. When I signed up for lessons the owner told me he liked motorcyclists learning to drive cars as we tended not to crash them🙂. £4 a lesson weekdays, £4.50 weekends. MK1 Ford Fiesta's. One of my instructors used to give me a free lesson on Sundays if I drove him and his mates to and from the pub where he would smoke some resin!

Interesting Dave…

My driving instructor (1979, Escort Mkll)
complemented me on my observation and road sense. “You’re not a motorcyclist by any chance are you?”

Had to smile.

Out of business now, but sign still there when I went past it  "Jack The Stripper" with big tanks of caustic chemicals for removing paint etc from large furniture and house doors.

Over in Twickenham location, still with a brilliant trade type toolshop there, and bakery with giant sausage rolls
