Dee Man Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 1 minute ago, Melanius Mullarkey said: I’m going to let us pass that Mr Alli said he “missed Moray” despite actually being in Moray. I'm with him on this as there are far, far worse places in the world you could be. I say this as someone who has driven around many times and enjoyed the scenery without spending much (any) time with the locals so presumably this may change ones opinions on their experiences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some crazy "pull a name out of thin air" towns on the go in Scotland. My favourite is Baldyquash. Not even sure it exists but there is a sign for it. It’s on the way to Wartle. Used to be a great chipper there. My old man discovered them selling deep fried smoked sausages there, nicked the idea and introduced them to the Elgin chipper scene in the late 70s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiegoDiego Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 My favourite is Findo Gask, solely because it should really be a Star Wars character, not a Perthshire village. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is clearly the correct name for a food outlet that sells fish and chips. Anyway, I used to live near the village of Clatt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always smile when I drive past the sign. I like to think Findo Gask is the real name of Old Scrotum, the Wrinkled Retainer, in Viv Stanshall's Sir Henry at Rawlinson End. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) Near me is the charming village of Menstrie. It takes the locals four weeks to ride the length of it on their bikes. Their Menstrie cycles, if you will.. Edited July 1, 2021 by alta-pete 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I thought I'd used up every possible way of feeling as ancient as the dinosaurs, then I'm in an amusement arcade having to explain to a teenage Ranter how to play a pinball machine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
