I've seen a plumbing company van getting around Brisbane and the business name is on the side. It goes by the name of...

Poo Man

Imagine working for that business, "Hello, Poo Man here, how can I help you"

'Root Boost' on some intersection near Adelaide Airport. No idea what they sell, I think it was fertilizer

'Total Tools', tool shop. Makes you wonder if the staff are 'total tools' as well.

Septic tank trucks seem to have a sense of humor. Seen one earlier this week called the t*rd burglar. On the back it said " Another load of politicians promises".
On another one today called dunnies are us it had written on the back of the tanker " we deliver milk on the weekends"

That's a rip off from an old Navy quote (from the submarine squad from memory) "no sea too rough - no muff too tough".
