My new game

Today while driving home from baby sign I came up with a new car game which is far better than pub cricket (useless on motorways) and the game my parents and I played where you try to think of a word that contains the last 3 letters on an English registration in the order they appear (and preferably without other letters inbetween them) - can you tell that my parents are teachers. This game doesnt really work with Northern Irish registations which often contain a Z.

So my new game (which still needs a name) is far more fun, and its really simple, you can play it on your own although I'm sure it would be far more fun with other people in the car as Lucy doesn't really say much and is staring out the back window because she is too young to be forward facing. Ok so its simple you are driving along and you see the name of a company on the side (or back) of a lorry or van and you have to come up with what the company does based on its name.

Today I was driving behind Safe Strip UK.

I think it sells health and safety equipment to strippers!! things like non-slip stillettos, poles with good grip etc.

And one I regularly see on the motorways - Christian Salvesen - I think it supplies Christian Slaves.

See its a fun game, I'll have to try it out when I have company other than Lucy in the car. Let me know what companies you see on your travels.
