Daft Names for Places.........

[raceboy]

.........Especially at the moment.
Well tomorrow the company I work for will be delivering to a place called.............
Atomic Weapons Establishment
And where is this location, Baghdad? No, Burghfield, Reading
And it's actually a new Restaurant
So what other dodgy named places have you seen out and about?

[Bodo]

would you like to live there?

One that always makes my daughter laugh is just outside Rouen, called Pissypoville I kind you not.

[Don]

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilioogofgoch

Roughly translated this means:

"We, the locals, needed a tourist attraction badly and having a really long name for our town fitted the bill nicely and it gives us a laugh everytime someone English tries to pronounce it and the best job was done by Jane Fonda in Barbarella phwoarrr"

Those travelling to Bookatrack's Anglesey days will have passed through...

Can't say that Ham or Sandwich seem to be particularly sensible names for places.. oddly enough, there's a place called Palestine in Surrey.. !?
