Ambience

In Turkey, in Capadocia, there is a restaurant named Local Restaurant. The idea is that if you tell your guide you want to eat at a local restaurant, well, you get the picture.

Ah clever.

I'm sure the most number of individually named outlets are hairdressers; there must be thousands of them, (None of which I find irritating.) If I had any skill with the scissors and Brylcreme (we call it the bounce in the trade) I might open one called the 'Snappy Snippers'
Hair today, gone tomorrow...Anybody else?

Red Hot Pawn is now a bit of a household name for my sisters and myself. We might chat about chess when we are out and may occasionally mention the site. Anyone eavesdropping our conversations would be shocked no doubt!

Here's a few favourites of mine.

Oh My Cod, Tipton.
Frying Nemo, Southampton.
New Cod on the Block, Sheffield.
The Codfather.
Rock and Malt, Cardiff.
Rock 'n' Roe, Romford.

It was reported that McDonalds had a cattle ranch in Indonesia called "100% Australian Beef"

We had a new server and internet protection system at work, so we had to tell the bosses the sites we'd want to use (beyond the normal email, banks, etc.).

It was an interesting conversation with the elder boss asking to be able access Red Hot Pawn.

Eating at the Codfather is a bit risky, as if you offend the owner you are likely to wake up with the head of a seahorse in your bed.
