...but rude place names are quite funny, in a rather schoolboy way.So well done the Guardian News Blog for this selection.
I have to say that I particularly enjoyed "Beaverlick".
Labour's Number One Political Blogger. Labour's Iain Dale but funnier.

I know it's really childish but Wookey Hole in Somerset always makes me laugh. Something about Chewbacca's naughty bits I suppose.
Chewy was a man, you banana. You do know that, right? :-)
If it makes anyone laugh, I could tell you about a place just outside Loughborough called Mountsorrel.
That doesn't initially sound that funny until I tell you that I work for the MP for Loughborough and that I used to have a girlfriend called Sorrel.
I do know Chewy was a boy Wookie, but Mrs Chewbacca wasn't....
So therefore Wookey Hole is something about Mrs Chewbacca's naughty bits. :-)
Ugh, what an image. :-/
The funny thing is I actually visited Cockermouth in Cumbria with a load of teenagers on Friday...with a suprisingly small amount of giggling at the name.
