How are the sheep?


What? I was only wondering. There are different breeds of sheep, you know (e.g., Australian White, Bluefaced Leicester, etc.) .... and animals can get sick and have their off days just like humans.  Wait.  You thought ....... shame on you!

Has anybody mentioned the Stuart Lee stand-up routine featuring the two unusually named places of Shitterton and Crapstone? Currently on Netflix and very funny; the episode is entitled Shilbottle, which itself is unusual, even before people attack the signs with the felt tip.

Hi

Really glad Scunthorpe hasn't got a silent S. 

Jim

Just like Dunstable has a silent D!

There's a hamlet in Northumberland, on the Pennine Way called Shitlington.

I was up around the northe east coast last week and just outside Berwick was a sign to a place called Conundrum but I drove past so fast I didn't manage to get a picture, but I do question why somewhere would have that name.

Now looking at the map  to see where to go tomorrow I have found " Lord Herefords Knob".

Apparently its a mountain in  the black mountains

I took this photo on my inset day at the beginning of September, this is on the House of Lords.
