20 January
Either you will understand (and share) this compulsion, or you will not - I saw, just once, an HGV bearing this name and was so heartened by its old-fashioned ring that I had to record it. Now is its moment of flying more freely!
For another that puns on the name of a famous painter, this oft-seen one takes some beating:
Vincent Van Hire
I do hate to think what they ask for as a deposit...
A more curious one (again, seen but once) is not for what it obviously relates to - as there is a time of year when it and related matter is fluttering in the currents on our roads - as the choice of name:
R. F. Straw Services
'Would you have need of some straw services?', the pitch might go, I guess. (Beats that stupidly misused word 'logistics', when it means little more than 'haulage', even if the load is refrigerated.)
Finally, a friend has the initials RPC, so I am always tickled by:
RPC Containers Limited
PS And how could I have forgotten - except that I did forget:
Central Crushing Ltd
