    Slightly OT....A friend visiting me in Germany once said while we were on the autobahn, that the village Ausfahrt was really big
    (Ausfahrt = exit in English...the sign approaching every junction exit on the motorway there.. but always made me laugh .....aus=out..fahrt=drive/travel)...I'll get my coat.

    We've got a road near us called Wigley Bush Lane.

    I point it out and giggle every time I see it :D You really would have thought the joke would've worn a bit thin by now...

    Not in keeping with the mostly toilet-themed names here:p, but I used to live near a road called Crooked Usage in Finchley.
