I Won

[marval]

I won an auction on eBay that was collection only.

"Where do you live mate so I can pop up?" I asked the seller.

"Towcester" he replied.

Can someone please explain this joke to me? No offence Marval! :-)

I guess I must be mispronouncing Towcester.
Maybe one needs to live in Northamptonshire to not spend ages before working out alternative pronunciations.

They moved there from Sandwich.

Is that Sandwich near Ham in Kent?

Sorry for the confusion, I live about twenty miles from Towcester.
