i't like beatboxing if you say it a few times

Jacks Bush always gets a giggle when we're driving to Salisbury

South Yorkshire police operations centre is on letsby avenue 😂😂

Piddletrenthide used to make me giggle a lot, the first time we drove through there on the way to our holiday destination my brother (then about 8 years old) thought the sign said piddlethenhide.

I guess it's more fun than following the Yellow Brick Road...

@Babybel - I love the sound of that one on my sat nav. Always makes me smile

I quite often drive through Nork - which always makes me smile.

I live in Birmingham near Dogpool Lane and can confirm that the 'l' is often painted out by some wag.

As is Sarehole Mill, which often has an amusing anagram painted over it.

My mate lives in Lickey End.

And I once heard that there's a Douglas Bader Walk in Castle Bromwich, but I fear this is made up as I've never found it. Hilarious if true.

Nob End in Bolton is the best...

@lonelycrab That's my birth place 😂

I often drive past Wideopen, who on earth named that place

There’s cold blow lane in the backstreets of Deptford.

Which is about right as it’s quite grim

I grew up near North Piddle in Worcestershire. Wyre Piddle is also quite close.

Also there is a Foggy Bottom tube station in Washington DC. Always made us laugh as kids.

Land of Green Ginger in Hull.

I'm rather keen on Gorrig, a village near my home

@Chuffit
Is that Wank or scratchy bottom?

Cox Green near Sunderland.

@MrsMoastyToasty

There And Back Again Lane in Bristol is the best

What is it about Bristol, eh. I work near "Emma-Chris Way", and I just think how quaint to call a road that, maybe there's a bit of a love story surrounding it!

We have a butts walk in town, always makes me smile

I suppose there's always the old favourite

Ouagadougou,capital of Burkina Faso is my absolute fave but also fond of popocatepetl

I offer No Name in the US, and Yorkey’s Knob in Australia.

Newtwopothouse in Co. Cork, in Ireland.

Wexford has Bastardstown, Fannystown and Horetown.

Ugley and Ugley Green in Essex. The WI there had to change its name to The Women’s Institute of Ugley’ to stop the titters.

I loved this when I was in primary school because of the names.
