So did you know Dali designed the Chupa Chups Logo?
Chupa Chups logo (1969)
“In 1969 Dali was approached by Spanish confectioners Chupa Chups to design a new logo, and the result became as instantly recognisable as his melting clocks. Dali incorporated the Chupa Chups name into a brightly coloured daisy shape. Always keenly aware of branding, Dali suggested the logo be placed on top of the lolly instead of the side so that it could always be seen intact.
Eye-catching, bold and deceptively simple, the logo has been barley changed since Dali created it.”

Possibly the oddest project hand in I’ve done - maybe second to crisp packet woman http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4ae3lt7DP1rsf3neo1_1280.jpg
I had always wondered why a meter maid was called such. Turns out it was because when parking meters were introduced a businessman in Queensland, Australia hired attractive women to top up peoples parking meters with coins and leave a calling card under the windscreen wiper. It still happens today. Not sure it will catch on in York though, slipping in £2.60 minimum, in a bikini, in wet, cold and probably windy England.
