Google scares me with this topic...

https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/pregnancy/a2252387-Ba...

Thread says.....
'Do you guys mostly pierce their ears as newborns or later? Is this available in the hospital right after birth? Or where do you get it done?,' Though it appears the poster is foreign, what the juddering fk makes one want to pierce a baby's ear. Surely the risk of infection in a newborn is higher.
Not sure if it's council or sheer idiocy (though I know the two are often combined)

I find myself reading The Herald in Glasgow today. There is nice article about 2016 Scottish baby names in it. They include:

Girls:

Adorabelle
Beau-Bear
Blu-Tyger
Cerise
Dior
Empress
Y

Boys:

Alpha
Boon
Diamond
Fountain
Oak
Pride
Bear
Fox
Wolf

There's a lot of creativity in those I feel...

Just.... 'Y'?! Or did you missed the rest off?!

Y did I get knocked up...
Y did he leave me...
Y do that to your child!

but then again, Y not?

Nope, just Y.

If you can get past the pop ups etc that afflict local news sites, the link below paraphrases the article. Choice names at the bottom:

Most of those would be embarrassing names to call your pets let alone your children. We should adopt the same system they have in Sweden where it is illegal to give your kid a crap name.

I'm not brave enough to search for 'chavgirlzuk'. I can only imagine it's an online den of inequity!

Oh it really is, I suspect Dogstar is stuck in there for days.

Some of them look filthier than a Mumbai sewer.

Good filthy or bad filthy?

Take your pick, some look good filthy, some look like they need a dip in a sheep dip full of Dettol.

We should just round up and murder or enslave the sort of people who would give their children a name like that rather.

Let's face it, they're fking abject wastrels and their very existence is bad for society AND the planets well being - their death or enslavement would be an environmental boon, I'd vote for it.

Being interviewed in your bedroom by BBC news with your bed in shot. Council.

I had a look and spent the rest of the afternoon afraid operation Yewtree were coming to find me.

Most of The Lane is a goldmine of council stuff!

Jonmx said:

It's a proper graveyard of chav wagons. There's a garden a couple of roads over with an 8ft resin gorilla and a 6ft resin dinosaur stood proudly next to some faux jungle waterfall. Sadly street view doesn't show them so I'll have to brave 'the Lane' and try to grab a pic.
And agreed on the seaside themed bathrooms.

I'm not from Exeter so when I was moving down here, looking at houses, I almost put an offer in on a nice place on Topsham Road, just by the junction that you'd take to 'the lane'.

Saved myself a load of money and hassle by taking a quick drive around the neighbouring streets, eye opening!

Indeed. I imagine the ridiculous amounts of traffic in Topsham Road and the ridiculous number of MASSIVE speed bumps in Burnthouse Lane would be enough to put anyone off living in that particular locale. Where did you choose in the end?

Absolutely, although all routes in and out of Exeter are terrible - with that we opted to buy close enough to the city that we don't need to drive much at all. We're in Pennsylvania, just below the university, walking distance to the shopping/missus' work/eateries/pubs etc... it works well for us.

I don't know what that says about either me or you but I just KNEW you were going to say Pennsylvania! Although having said that Pennsylvania just below the Uni is dangerously close to the football ground and student bedsit land...

I just had to have a browse, out of curiosity, of course.

Am I on a register somewhere now?

This is PH, we all live in the pretend posh bits!

It is close to the student bedsit land, in fact, the house opposite is is a 5 bed student let. I'd have uni students next door over dolites any day of the week though! Slim chance of them being dodgy or abusive, of course they party a bit and come in late making more noise than they should but I've been the student making the noise so I'm not one to get wound up about that. Touch wood it's not often.

As for St James' Park, we're not that close but I can hear it in the background if I'm outside on a Saturday afternoon, I like it, bit of a buzz - reminds me I'm in the mix, city living etc etc, that's what we moved here for, rather than Heavitree or Pinhoe. We also lived in Kenn for a year, loved that but just a bit quiet for us.

I was rather perturbed to see a note at the bottom of the page telling me that the kiddie fiddler results had been removed.

[Sheets Tabuer]

Names again..

[Bullett]

Sky and Bleugh?

ffs if you are going to give you kids terrible names at least spell them in a way that they don't have to explain both the name and the spelling.
