# The place that moved out was a very funky

# In wolverhampton a few years back...
...there used to be a shop near the shopping centre called "Knobs and Knockers". God knows what it sold.

Also, on the way to school I pass a pub - a few months ago it featured the sign:

"Happy hour - 5pm-7pm"

# Arf!
there's a "Knobs 'n' Knockers" shop in Auckland too - unfortunately they sell doorhandles, although I always wondered as a child..

# As usual, the media has been trying to whip it into a frenzy

I grew up in San Francisco so the references, especially "Bay Aryan" made me laugh.
