Some shops have undeniably excellent names, like the dry-cleaners at Turnham Green, "Turn 'em Clean". Genius - you can't beat that. Others, well they just don't get it; like this uni-sex hair salon in New Cross - "Curl Up and Dry". Sure it's a play on words, but why would somebody who paid for a perm and blow dry at this place want to curl up and die?
This one (again in New Cross) is of the same calibre. Would you buy Italian designer shoes/bags (that is what they sell) from a place called "Shade Enterprises"?

Um, you didn't mention that they actually sell "Italian designer shoes, bags and WEDDING DRESSES" (final line of the sign).
Way to render Italian fashion irredeemably tacky.... Sigh.
Haha - I just love 'Curl up and Dry'!
