Earth/Toilets Sign (Magna, Rotherham UK, 2011)
via PaulEBennett on Flickr.

Magna is a Science Adventure Centre located in Yorkshire, UK and it makes for a great family day out. It has been built in an old steelworks and many of the exhibits are on a colossal scale.

I think that at the exit from the toilets you might find further signs for Wind and Fire…

Simply Fed (Oldham UK, 2011) – found by SignsOfDistress.

The second music pun of the day – and what a joy. Of course, Simply Red are a Manchester band. Well played, shop owner, well played. I applaud you.

Scissor Sisters (Oldham UK, 2011) found by SignsOfDistress.

Scissor Sisters – you’ve heard the band now get the hairdo. Actually, I enjoy a good music pun and I imagine this establishment run by two women united forever in bringing quality hairdressing with gusto.

Get Stuffed and Sew Fantastic (London UK, 2007) via septuagesima on Flickr.
Well here’s two for the price of one!

Spendloads-Please (London, 2007) – via Natalie Tsang on Flickr.

Well not a pun, but, this is the strangest name for a hairdresser’s that I have ever come across. How can you resist? Ladies and Gents too.

The Cutting Edge (Greece, 2007) – by Robert Wallace on Flickr.

I remember getting my hair cut at a place called ‘The Cutting Edge’ around 1975. This one’s in Athens. Does the pun work in Greek?

The Codfather (Northwich UK, 2011) via Stephen.

I have to say that The Codfather is another true classic. I am going to make a trip out there for fish and chips. They have their own website.

Tailor Maid: (Wigan UK, 2011). Thanks, Don.

I’m guessing this is a snippet from Google Maps. ‘Tailor Maid’ alter clothes and they dry clean. They do puns too.

M.T. Belly’s (Bolton UK, 2011) submitted by Don.

I’ve found a few variations on this. Is it worth it? Is it funny? I guess so. Maybe. This one’s a takeaway in Bolton in NW England.

Short N Curly (Stockport UK, 2011), contributed by SignsOfDistress.

This is a hairdresser’s classic. Cheeky? Yes. Cheesy? You bet. I’m giving ‘Short N Curly’ my first Signs Of Distress Classic award. I’ve seen this up and down Britain.
