Well toads do suck. I don't see the problem. Frogs > toads.

[Drunkencorgimaster]

Funny you mention that because all the tourist memorabilia in town shows pictures of frogs, not toads. They even have a yearly toad race for the kids and most of them bring frogs to it.

Here in Spain, we have a city in Jaén, Andalusia, called Guarromán...

Tonbridge

[Iyandagar]

I drive through Pratts Bottom most every ay. Decent little Chinese takeaway there... And a ****ty pine furniture shop and a garish yellow Saab advertising Saab repairs.... Obviously.

Are those all real??

I've always found the town of Gaydon to be rather humorously named.

I made three up. Can you guess which?

[Wildeybeast]

The first three?

I read an article about a town called "F*cking" in Australia. Apparently the town signs are CONSTANTLY being pilfered.

[Chris Copeland]

There seems to be a town called Middlefart in Denmark. There is a place called Penistone in the UK... ouch...

[SotonShades]

Barton-in-the-Beans is the butt of a lot of jokes around here (literally often...)

Then again, there are only 4 or 5 houses in it, and they aree all a bit... strange...

[Wolfshade]

Up in cumbria (I think) there are two places near each other Giggleswick and Wigglesworth. Which are brilliant names.
There is also a place called Ugely.

Though perhaps not unfortunate, Worlds End (there are a couple) always sound a rather bad place to be.

There was an article on the beeb a little while ago about the plight of the residents of a "Butt Hole Lane" and their quest to rename it as people didn't believe that it was a real name. I believe it is now call the Archers Lane or some such dull name

There are also extremely rude place names. Using a certain word for a certain part of a ladies anatomy.....and this comes from the word which is now top of the pantheon of swearing being derived from the correct and polite Anglo-Saxon name for the lady bits.

In my opinion Intercourse, PA is worse than Toad Suck, AR. Not that there is anything wrong with intercourse, its just Intercourse that sounds funny of course.

My half aunt lived on "clitsome view" in Sommerset (not a town name though so doesn't really count, just a street name)

[eldargal]

Ah, Clitsome View, addresses no one can find unless they already own property there.

[Wolfshade]

It is near Watchet

[eldargal]

Ha.

I thought it was spelt with a ph?

It's not that hard, it's always found eventually...Normally near the base of the mound before descending into the depths of the lower valley...

[Wolfshade]

Ha.

It is and that is how I spelt it.

And the road really is near Watchet :)

[Psychosplodge]

That's a really over eager filter...

[addamsfamily36]

Well my local GW is in a town called STAINES (stains) but some genius decided that we should change the name. so we now have......Staines upon thames

[Wolfshade]

I've grumbled about it before

[Wolfshade]

There is canal street in Manchester which has the c and s removed frequently

[Psychosplodge]

Yeah but that's the very happy mile isn't it?

[Wolfshade]

It's a treat

[Psychosplodge]

or something like that...

[eldargal]

They need to make that street one way...

[Psychosplodge]

Well they do say those that frequent it move in One Direction...

[Wolfshade]

Ah ha! The prime mover, so it has come to this.

[Psychosplodge]

Indeed it will always come to this...

There's an RC cathedral in the city of Condom in France. And Mount W*nk in Bavaria. The visitor centre at the top of it is called the W*nkhaus.

Like coal, but not as good.

[DarkLink]

Even worse, we had to stop for gas at a station called, and i quote, "kum and stop".
