The Fox and Duck


It hurts every time that I walk past The Fox and Duck that I cannot pop in for a quick drink and the best that I can do is console myself with appreciating the striking simplicity of its sign.

As a general rule I hate the use of "&" symbols and I have spent many hours doing repetitive edits on corporate documents to change them all to "and"s, but, short of rotating the pub sign to make it landscape,  I cannot see what else they could easily do here. I would have dropped the "The" though; it is a largely unnecessary word and is commonly overused.
