Since getting involved with domain names it makes me smile when I see a small business using a generic. I was on holiday in Northumberland last month and while walking through the small village of Craster came across a fish smokers using the domain kipper.co.uk

Anyone else got similar examples to share?
 
Onions.co.uk was up high on the side of a giant farming warehouse in ass end of Lincolnshire - don’t know if it’s still there - but perfect domain for what they did :)

It redirects now, but really like the idea of a farmer registering it in the early days. I assume it was registered rather than acquired anyway.
