Spotted this story in a newspaper today, we had a poll for the most embarrassing town names in Britain, how would you like to tell people you came from one of these places.

 

1) Shitterton (Dorset)

2) Scratchy Bottom (Dorset)

3) Brokenwind (Aberdeenshire)

4) Crapstone (Devon)

5) Golden Balls (Oxfordshire)

6) Ugley (Essex)

7) Crackpot (North Yorkshire)

8) Backside (Aberdeenshire)

9) Great Snoring (Norfolk)

10) Happy Bottom (Dorset)

 

If Billyblade lived in the UK we know he would definately reside in "UGLEY" i quite fancy "HAPPY BOTTOM" myself :hrhr:

in northwestern wales there is a town called: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

 

but thats nothing if u know the real name of bankok, wich is : Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit

 

edit: bankok in our language would be: The city of angels, the great city, the eternal jewel city, the impregnable city of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated god, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnukarma.
