About this product
Product Information
An hilarious and beautifully designed book that is a natural successor to the cult of Boring Postcards, Crap Towns and Bad Hair. There comes a point when things get so bad, they're actually good. And when it comes to naming hair salons, fish & chip shops, florists, dry cleaners, and shoe shops, there is nothing as bad - and therefore as good - as a pun-based name. For the first, and hopefully the last, time ever the very best British shop puns have been gathered together in one stylish book. So raise a glass to Blonde Dye Bleach, The Cod Father, Floral 'N' Hardy, Wish You Wash Here, and Shoe-Be-Do, and pay tribute to the great British high street that has supported these classic shops. Extra material includes: an introduction; profiles of some of the most interesting shops, and shop owners; a shop directory and a R.I.P. list of shops that have recently closed; league tables for the best punning town, and region, in the UK; and a 'shop pun generator'.

The item arrived promptly and well packaged and exactly as described. It was actually better than described, as the condition of this second hand book was described as only "good" in the Seller's description, but when I received it, it was in fact in very good condition! I would definitely buy from this seller again and order more books at a fraction of the normal retail price. Definitely recommend them to others. Many thanks.
