Today and yesterday there has been a white van parked outside work. On it is the name of the company (Grasshoppers), two phone numbers, an email address and the suggestion "Why not give us a try?"

Now, the very obvious answer to that is Because we don't know what the bloody hell it is you do. Unless they supply grasshoppers, of course.

Surely this is such a fundamental thing that no one bright enough to run a business could miss it ?

Driving to and from work I've seen a lot of such businesses around the Heathrow area. My favourite simply said:

We're the best there is.

...with a phone number and the company's name. The best at what ? They didn't say.

Just in general, maybe.

Shouldn't that be We're the best there are?

Or not. I must admit to being confused at this point.
