I go past a Fiddlers Loke on my journey to work everyday. And it does indeed look like the kind of secluded place people would go for some outdoors activity.

There's a Cockburn Street here which people find amusing for some reason.

I passed a sign for W@nk in Germany a few years ago.

There is a town not that far from me in the Morbihan (that's France for the unwashed) called Languidic.

For those familiar with Dorsetshire you will know this one. I am led to believe that Puddletown just down the road was originally Piddletown. Re-named I believe for a visit by Queen Victoria, for obvious reasons.

I have been to Pett Bottom here in England, and the aforementioned Twatt in Orkney.

In the US I have visited Dull, Bland and Boring (all in different states)

domhnall_dearg

There's a village on the Etape Caledonia course called Dull which is twinned with the aforementioned Boring.
