There's a Tanerife in in Aintree that does sunbeds, spray tans etc.

Halal, is it meat you're looking for? Butchers in Lancs.

A Stitch in Time sells wool, thread, sewing machines etc.

In France there’s a poodle parkour called Doggy Style but I’m sure that’s a simple case of Franglais fail. When I open my Chinese and Thai restaurants I will call them “Wanton Abandon” and “Thai One On” I have decided. I don’t think that’s been used yet🙂

Parlor not parkour
