Whenever I see local business using this sort of double-entendre, crude advertising, I make it a point to tell everyone that I know not to use their services. While I have no problem with vulgarity, I feel that it shouldn't be out there for children to see without warning.
Another example is the giant testicles that some geniuses feel that they have to hand from their trucks...

Excellent idea. However I think the vulgarity in this image was unintended, by a person who is not a native speaker of English. Note the spelling of "Quality" :)

Are you making this statement above in response to the term "hand jobs"?
You would not expose your children to the written term "hand jobs"?
:o

I have 3 daughters under 12 and while I agree that it's ideal to keep them sheltered from this adult content I can't help but remember that I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show when I was 9. We owned the soundtrack which I sang over and over with my mum and I had no clue what any of it meant.

And would you consider yourself "scarred for life" because of that experience? I would think not.

I was the last of the Innocents, honestly not a clue.
When I was in P7 (aged 10 or 11), a boy came into class and handed round playing cards which elicited what I thought was a bizarre reactions from his peers from photos of a woman eating a sausage while lying on her stomach ...
I never thought about it again until as an adult I found the self-same pack of cards in a shop in Corfu ...
Apparently the sighting didn't do me any harm; nor did it remove my innocence, as I was none the wiser.

I'm not so sure Sue, you live on Arran but you're not a landscape photographer - what's that about??!! LOL

I don't live on Arran, and I've only been on the island five times [1], two of these before I had a camera, and of the others, one for the Highland Games one on a group birding day trip and one on a totally overcast and wet weekend.
When I left the Day Job, Arran was near the top of my list for May, but two extremely wet Mays haven't let me do it yet.
[1] despite regularly doing 'summer' Saturdays going back and forward on the ferry all day as an RSPB volunteer.

I guess that I have this image in my head of a small child asking, "What are those things hanging on the back of the truck?" or something similar. I guess that I'm just a bit old-fashioned.
