Do Nuns Drift?

[naomi24]

Yesterday, I drove past a road with an interesting name - Nuns Drift - written just like that, with no apostrophe, so in effect a statement - and I wondered........ do they?

Well, it made me laugh. Just thought I'd share that with you. :o)

Do they.......Not really ........as a habit

So these big sticky out bits on their hats......directional aids for drifting?

[terambulan]

Where did you see that.

I s'pose it seems they do while in their habits?

Punctuation marks are generally removed from place names. eg Smiths Creek. In Australia this was done as an organised agreement.

This was done partly to help automatic character recognition in the postal sorting machines.

Shame on you Mibs, some of us are sensitive you know!

I would have envisaged that Nuns would float instead of drifting.

My aunty (the nun) has been known to drift off to sleep during Coronation Street, but doesn�t everyone?

I have a street near me and is called �Lulworth Avenue� Once a friend of mine (estate agent) asked me that any Asians he showed any house in that street they decided against it. Why? �Had you known about the meanings in Urdu, Hindi or Punjabi then you would have done the same thing�. I said

Of course I`m sure you know, Naomi, that there are quite a few men in the Bible with the name Nun. Maybe they all ended up on your road!
