Funny names for occupations
« on: January 13, 2014, 11:28:03 AM »

Today whilst walking home saw a driving school car - Startkey & Clutch. Made me smile.  :)

Years ago on my way to work I used to pass a dentist called Mr Gummer.  ;D

Can anyone add to that?

There used to be a fishmonger nearby whose name was S.E.Breeze.  I used to think that was lovely and very apt.

Hi Taz. The Dr i am refering to is probably in his 60's, and work in Castle Douglas in South West Scotland.

That's the same one as in the link I posted Eddie. He was named before Donald Duck was created so his parents can be forgiven.  ;D
