I do remember driving through Moreton in Marsh in the 70's and seeing the Sook Erection company mentioned earlier - sadly the site is now a supermarket.
In Wells (Somerset) the baker goes by the name of "Burns the Bread".
In the 80's I worked for Plessey Telecommunications which was merged with GEC Telecommunications to form GPT which sounds OK until they ventured to open a Paris office. (GPT pronounced in a similar way to "Je l'ai pété" - I have farted)
