It must be coming up to Christmas because the aftershave/perfume adverts are all over TV already. Everytime I see the Sauvage advert I snigger at the memory of the person that defaced the bus stop advert. Any puns you want to share?

If it helps I am in France and call all my chats sauvage [feral cats] 'Sausage'.

There's a chippy by my parents called the cod's scallops. My mum is convinced it's a pun on codswallop and won't be convinced otherwise!

There’s an ice cream shop ‘A Wafer A Cone’ and it wasn’t until I said it out loud when complaining it didn’t make sense, that it made sense

We call B&M (the shop) Bowel Movement!

There's a chippy near us called Cod Almighty.

There was a hairdresser near us called Scissor Trix. My very educated father insisted it was a pun on “cicatrice” (a scar). He thought it was clever but wondered about the implication that they cut people’s skin. He would not be told that it was just Scissor Tricks with a yoonique spelling.

Yesterday the kids were asking what was for tea and DH said ‘we’re having gammon roast - and that’s a gammon tea!’ (guarantee) 😄 he was very pleased with himself. The kids love gammon. Actually didn’t get round to it as didn’t leave enough time to cook it!

When Rolls Royce brought out a Pride model 🙄 Simon Evans suggested the advertising tagline should be ‘At 60 mph all you can hear is the tucking of the cock’
