Talking Amusing Shop Names
I am often amused by shops with weird shop names, generally those with some innuendo to them.

Amusing Shop Name of the Day: Hung Wang

Just a shame I couldn't get a picture.

I encourage you all to post pictures of amusing shop names in this thread! Do it!

Edit:

Ah ha, some guy photographed the place.

Gainsborough Shopfronts: Hung Wang on Trinity Street

Got no pics, but I always thought 'Snap on Tools' had great potential for amusement.

Honest to god, I used to do a lot of sign designs and things of that nature and this guy came into my shop and asked to have a logo designed for his company. Name of his company? Beecher Tool & Die...

No picture from me either, but I was on one of the neighboring islands and saw a building with a sign, Wankers World. At the time I wondered what was inside, now after reading the recent thread here and getting educated I'm sure glad I didn't enter.
