STRAP LINES

Travelling along the M4 today we were commenting on the unrelenting naffness of the straplines on vans. You know the sort of thing - XYZ logistics -carrying your cares away or worse still XYZ logistics - caring for the environment through green fueled transportation.

When we repaint Herbie I'd like to have a strapline beneath the boat name - something like

HERBIE

GRAND UNION CANAL

or perhaps

HERBIE

N & K CORBETT & CO

all suggestions welcomed.

Actually, I'm rather tempted by

HERBIE

ROYAL COUNTY OF BERKSHIRE

because that's where we live. If you've got it why not flaunt it!

How about a naff strapline

HERBIE

NOT A VOLKSWAGEN

If you are thinking of renaming a boat, may I suggest:

GOBBLEDIGOOK

YOU KNOW IT MAKES SENSE
