      I'm pretty sure there'd be some petty little Hitler in some council office somewhere who'd be more than willing to cause you lots of publicity.

      I'd buy a pint or two just for that: to read how they can construe the name as racially offensive.
      Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

        If you have the time check out the The Rubettes and Sugar Baby Love on youtube. The backing lyrics go 'Bob Shawadi, Bob Shawadiwadi'


        I went to see Showaddywaddy last year I was in Pitlochry and had bugger all to do and they were on.

          It's a note from the Ford repair centre - "Don't worry Gloria, we're working on your sic Transit. You can pick it up on Mundi."

            Probably could - but I'd think you are less likely to get away with the similarity to the name of the band.

            If MGM can stop a fridge company calling themselves "007 Refrigeration", I'd worry more about the band than the potential for a racism backlash.

              Those of you who did the work on the chutney spoon could help poor conned tractor out here. Type "lick the chu" into Google and it auto-suggests
