    Haven't got a photo (this was before the days of phone cameras), but when I worked on the Kings Road in Chelsea I regularly used to see tourist coaches with the bus company's name - CHALFONT - proudly displayed on the sides & always used to find it amusing (yes, childish I know)....
    Those familiar with Cockney rhyming slang will understand the derivation of this!

    There is also I believe a German coach company by the name of Fucker which does something similar with their vehicles.......

    :LOL: And for those unfamiliar with said rhyming slang, you need to extrapolate "Chalfont-St.Giles" to find an uncomfortable medical condition:oops:

    A village in Austria

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fucking,_Austria

    Also the home of a brewery that produces a rather palatable, refreshing beer called "Fucking Hell" ("hell" meaning "light" in German). Of which I brought back two crates a few years ago - partly to prove to doubters that it's actually for real!

    And not forgetting the village of Wank in Bavaria, Germany:

    wank.jpg

    Which - in German - makes you a "Wanker" if you hail from there (in the same way as a "Berliner" is from Berlin and a "Stuttgarter" is someone from Stuttgart, and so on).
