Disappointing names

[sherrardk]

Found out that there is a sparkleberry tree and was childishly disappointed when I saw a picture of one (it's a perfectly nice tree, but not what I was hoping for). Any names of stuff disappointed you?

Cant think of any at the moment, but I see what you mean about the tree.

I went to see the film "Naked Lunch" once - it wasn't what I was expecting at all...

D97, yours reminds me of Grange over Sands which is often called Grange over Mud for a good reason.

Where I live in Eastbourne there's an area called Shinewater - a lovely name which conjures up mental images of dappled sunlight playing on the ripples of a lake...

The fact that the locals refer to it as Crimewater should tell you all you need to know about what it's really like. :-(

Would she think the Manx Grand Prix was a well endowed Tom from the Isle of Man Mike? (its a superb amateur motorcycle race btw).

sorry firewatch lol....

on Mark's theme,we have a pennycumquick in Penryn - though I am not surprised by that. It is such a truism.

Grange over Sands is a nondescript little town where well off old folk go to retire

'Free House', outside a pub, is always disappointing!
