    Thankee both.

  8. Good thinking, Peter. I'm impressed that, as a Canadian, you've picked up on the names and places that are intrinsically funny in Britain. "Edna from Slough", "Arbroath"..."Ian McEwan" etc

    Other guaranteed ribticklers:

    Leamington Spa
    Skegness
    Bognor Regis
    Tunbridge Wells
    Smethwick
