i dunno. all those pictures seem very suspect. they're very low resolution, on purpose it seems. and the reflection in the car window on picture doesn't seem to match the shop. i call bullshit on this "book of real places" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'Paws For Thought' is round the corner from my girlfriends so that one is definitely a real place. |
||||||||
|

i once saw a tree surgeon van with 'tree wise men' written on it, i really hope they were/are irish, otherwise it devalues the pun somewhat. |

thats crap, because its almost a pun, but its not because the battery doesn't mean anything... and don't say batter because you would never say battery |
||||||||
|

I would say battery, I'd be wrong but I would say it. |
