I used to chuckle when I walked past the PPE shelving in the stores, our ear defenders from Bilsom had the model name "Ultra Muff"...

Overtook a yacht in Falmouth Bay a couple of days ago, thought it was called "Genital Chaos!". Closer inspection revealed it to be General Chaos but I know what I'm calling my next boat!!

The TOP gas/petrol station in Muff* (an actual village in Donegal, Ireland) used to pay to advertise on Caw roundabout in Derry. The local council obligingly erected (ho ho) signs amid the flowers saying " Sponsored by Top Muff" - it always cheered my day 
Some wise guy has developed this site: http://www.muffdivingclub.ie/
It's a spoof site but unusual as it has a .ie domain, which is not so easy to get here - bit of wool pulling done there somewhere.
____________________________
* I always hoped they'd twin with either Twatt in Shetland or Nobber in Co. Meath - imagine the signage

I once had to deal with a lawyer called A Swindle,which I thought humourous enough,however not being able to stop myself, I asked him why he didn't use his first name, he said "what,Adam..."

There *IS* a diving club in Muff, Co. Donegal. It's called Muff Diving Club (surprisingly)

Well there you go alt! I've been diving in the N/W since 1991 and haven't heard of them. The Coastguard haven't either. Or my other diving buddies, or CFT, or PADI.
They can't go down very often!
