Whilst driving through Yeovil today we noticed this and thought of you... should it be Caves or is something wrong, please discuss!

If the emporium in question belongs to Mr/Ms Cave (or even the Cave family), then I believe the sign is correct. Axl???

I'm a little concerned, though, by the angle of the photograph. Can you reassure the health and safety pedant that you were wearing an appropriate safety harness while you leaned out of the car in such a precarious position?

I'm afraid no harness other than a seat belt was being worn but the window was down, hand inside the car... The car was mid wheelie though!!

Readers will be probably unsurprised to know that I used to shop in Cave's...they do cool clothes and for some reason hockey sticks.

Random factola of the day

Taking the previous post as fact, one must assume that the sign is correct, and is indicitive of the shop being owned by a person or persons of the name Cave. Unless GF used to shop there for fashionable games of underground hockey.
