Not bad. A-Head of Time is really good. Saw another one today "Altered Ego." Maybe there is something about hairdressers that makes them a little more creative.

I grieve for the old Load of Mischief, but tonite I had a drink at a bar called "My Bar." The owner couldn't think of a name.

But "My Bar" is a name, and quite catchy too.

Now on to take aways, there are a few butty shops called Big Bite which I think is quite good. Then there is Chopsticks Chinese, Lunch Box, Nibbles Sandwich Shop and one I really like Yummies. Conjures up a nice picture in your mind!!

Here we go with a few florists that caught my eye. Bloomin Lovely, Darling Buds, Garden Gate, Garlands, Open All Hours, Petals and Pick Of The Bunch. Got to say I quite like all of them.

It does conjure up a nice picture in a way that the Big Belly Deli doesn't

I reckon that should read 'Rumbled'...being tumbled is something else entirely.

They both sound unpleasant ... but as I understand neither one I'll have to wait for an explanation

Came across another salon: Altered Ego. It seems that those who open salons tend to be very creative in their choice of names. Maybe in a business that is so competitive a cute original name helps bring in new customers.

Looking through the phone book it only seems to be people with creative proffessions that take the trouble. I was thinking a glazier could be called "It's A pane"
