Now phonetically spell Cholmondeley & Wybunbury. You can not cross the border into Cheshire without answering this.

sideeply.bsky.social•2 days ago

I've never been to Cheese-shire.
What's it like?

Unsurprised as it's you...

Place names can be fun..

Next road down from me is Cock Lane

tarquinfauntleroy.bsky.social•2 days ago

😂
There are a surprising number of street & road names with Cock in them.

terryleopard.bsky.social•2 days ago

There's a place called love lane near St Paul's that used to be called..

Well..

tarquinfauntleroy.bsky.social•2 days ago

There were a few of those. Shrewsbury had one (now just Grope Lane).

There's rarely an actual sign on ours...every time the council replaces it it disappears again, I guess every teenage boy in the village has on in his bedroom.
We also have a Canal Farm...the 'C' keeps going missing.

tarquinfauntleroy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yeah, there's a canal in town & the sign often gets the 'C' painted over..

There's a Bell End in Rochdale

bezzyboop.bsky.social•2 days ago

What's Lord David doing in Rochdale?

Great Christmas wrapping paper for a present to Farage.

In Thai, Bang literally means district. So the city is named after the district of Kok. There are all sorts of suburbs around it like Bang Su, Bang Tim, Bang Tum etc

tarquinfauntleroy.bsky.social•2 days ago

A lot of stuff getting banged in Thailand..

Bit too well known.. I was going for lesser known places.
(Ok, 'Muff' & 'Twatt', I know..🤷)

My great grandad was from Penistone.
I must say that my expectations of pink houses, blue drainpipes and purple rooftiles were not met.

stokie72.bsky.social•2 days ago

Stayed there when we walked the Trans Pennine Trail from coast to coast, it was quite nice. Mind you Liverpool, Barnsley, Rotherham and Hull were on the route so it’s all relative!

I don't think you have.
I'd swear Bonnie Tyler actually wrote a song about Clitheroe...
