Quality, Service and Fares

The business card says:
The Ringmer Village Cab Co.
for quality, service and fares
.

It’s strange how our language lets us infer that the quality is high and the service is good… but doesn’t let us assume any superlatives about the fares. Instead it seems an odd statement to make: we're a taxi company and we have fares.

Yes, the fares are fair. Just in case you wondered.

I love those old business cards, so much thought in the layout and typefaces.
I just came over here to remind you to blog as per your instructions a while ago, and here you are deposting lovely little gems without announcing it on the blogs page, naughty boy!

That one was annoying though because by some strange impulse I clicked on the bloody thing and then couldn't get back to your blog to read it grrrhhh.

Did you have to change into to your trunks to vote or was the pool still empty????

The pool is just open in the summer, so voters weren't distracted by flesh or swimmers!
