    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton

    Cockermouth in Cumbria

    I was just going to add that one! We had to send an engineer there from the firm where I used to work. He asked how to get to Cockermouth (pre-Satnav days), and someone else in the office chipped in "Ask her nicely" :rotfl:

    We have Pennycomequick near us (whoever she was ;)).

    Brown Willy - highest peak in Cornwall.

    And a little alley called "Back Passage".

    Then Devon has a village called Crapstone.

    As per earlier posts, my grandparents used to live in Ware. We used to visit during the school hols, and lead to great confusion when asked where we were going for the holidays!
