I was watching the rugby the other weekend, I think it was Ireland v France. I was a bit groggy after having suffered a blood sugar Hypo. Anyway, I looked up and saw an advertising hoarding which read "NOBBER MOTORS"

That can't be right I thought, so I shouted to my wife. She refused to have a look and claimed "You're at it!!" When I asked her about it later she claimed it must have been Cobber Motors or something else. I never really thought about it again until now.

A quick Google brought up this:-

My wife is eating humble pie as we speak. I guess the word must mean something else in Ireland. Anyone else know any strange company names?

I always find the word 'Motors' hilarious. ;)

I do believe it has something to do with the new fangled things called "Auto-Mobiles"

I know there is a small place about 10 miles from Dublin called Nobber. :confused
