Had to go to Accrington last week to meet up with Dennis Taylor and his colleagues Janet and Nick from the Lancashire Economic Partnership.

Shop names is this blog theme.

I went passed the Filling Station and Get Stuffed, both butty shops.

I've sometimes taken a bacon butty early morning off my pal Ian Forrest at his shop off Eanam.

But I've also been past Crumbz in Clayton-le-Moors and the Raveners in Darwen.

Clayton also has Tit Bits, but I make no further comment.

There was always Rumbletums in Clitheroe to grab a bite. And there's a Mega Bite in Burnley!

Travelling through the Cotswolds a few years ago we came across an antique shop - Junk & Disorderly - while somewhere in Yorkshire a taxi firm called Inti-Cabs.

But you can always rely on hairdressers to be "original".

I go to Beth at Permutations. But you could go to: Ahead of Time, Carol of Sweeny Todds, A Cut Above, Hackers, Hairlines, Hairforce, Hairs & Graces, Laurel & Hardys Barber Shop, Mop Headz, Purple Curl, Streakers.

My favourite, perhaps, as I left the BRI many years ago post-vasectomy, was Snippers!

Bed companies certainly dream up some good names. Then there's Swindells for Oaths!

Can anyone beat these?
