    I was following a van up the A40 a couple of weeks ago with Wyre Piddle
    Brewery sign-written on it. I have now decided that I absolutely must
    try a pint or two of Piddle In The Wind (ABV 4.5%) and Piddle in the
    Snow (ABV 5.2%)

    signwritten across the sides.

    Don't you think comedy brew names a little tiresome?

    On a par with amusing ties in an office. "I'm a witty and incisive

  16. Last time I ventured through N.Wales I spotted a van with "Mingers" writ
    large on it. Coming closer I was disappointed to see it wasn't full of
    slappers, but plumbing gear.

    There's something Nasty in the picture, I'll give you that. It's not
    gruesome though. I've not uncovered it today yet.
