Only Cars and Commercials
We spotted this amazing van on our daily walk in Cheadle on Saturday!
I'd literally just said to Emily that I hadn't seen anything fun to photograph recently as we've been locked down in the borough.
Only Fools and Horses is a pop culture icon that has been ripe for bootlegging and parodies over the years.
It's crazy how many Reliant Regal Supervans we've seen on our minigolf travels.
Elsewhere in Stockport you can see a hearse from a business called Shed's Household Independent Traders.
Shawfield Line Marking Specialists Ltd. is another business that operates in Stockport and some less exotic locations like London, Paris and New York.
If you're in Blackpool you can visit Lester's Independent Trading Co.

Strangest Things in Blackpool
We've just started watching Stranger Things on Netflix and it reminded me that we saw the remains of the Strangest Things attraction in Blackpool earlier this year.
The online reviews for the experience are quite something!

A-Team Cleaning Services in Manchester
Spotting an 'A-Team van' in Stockport.
I always keep an eye out for fun and interesting stuff and managed to get a snap of this 'A-Team van' out on a mission somewhere in the Greater Manchester underground earlier today!
Check out the A-Team Cleaning Services Facebook Page for more information.
It's not the first A-Team van I've seen on my travels. Check out the Multi Kitchens Ltd van, The Waste Team and The Natural Tile Company in Belfast.

The Goodfather in Salford
We spotted another Godfather takeaway while out for a walk in Salford yesterday.
This one was missing a letter on its sign.
But had gained two letters to become Goodfather Pizza |
The side sign still says Godfather |
Check out the Godfather signs we've seen on our travels.
Another Godfather takeaway
We spotted another Godfather takeaway while in Chorley last month.
We've seen quite a few Godfathers on our travels.

Luigi's Pizzaria in Little Hulton
Spotting a super takeaway in Little Hulton, Manchester.
Emily's eagle eyes spotted a brilliant sign on a takeaway in Little Hulton, Manchester as we were driving past en route to Chorley.
Seeing Mario and Luigi in other places...
We've also seen Mario Mini Markets in Levenshulme and Reddish, Mario and Luigi ice cream vans in Buxton and Hathersage, Mario movers in Newcastle, Mario's takeaway in Barnsley, and Mario, Luigi and Mario & Luigi takeaways in Blackpool!Thursday, August 06, 2020

Bart the Plumber!
My recent post about the Itchy & Scratchy graffiti in Manchester reminded me I spotted this bit of Simpsons bootleggery in Rhyl last year.
If Bart doesn't fix your plumbing you'll have to wash yourself with a rag on a stick |
