  • Name of the road you live on

    I’ve lived at addresses with pretty drab names, except the Isle of Man, where the majority are in Manx which is great.

    My current address is a bit of a mouthful, Majora Henryk Dobrzańsk Hubala.

    Turns out he was a Polish war hero, partisan & the Wehrmacht had to send 8,000 against his 300.

    Makes interesting reading & apparently a film was made about him. Love stuff like this.

    Better than Drab Road

    Name of the road you were born on and your first pet is your porn star name. I’m Sandy Pomeroy, not too bad!

        I used to live on Weezer Strasse (which sounds funnier when pronounced by someone who doesn't speak German).
        Nearby was Humperdincker Strasse (the eponymous German composer whose name was used as a stage name for the 60's crooner).

          I used to live at Galley Hill. It seems there were a lot of ne'er do wells hanging around in that area in the past.

              I have lived at 5 Mayfair. Not the one in London, twas a residential caravan park. My porn name would have been Lucky Caerwent. Bit of a welsh twang to it. 😂

                    I used to live around the corner from Fanny Street. So near and yet so far; story of my life.

                          I used to live on Edwin Conroy Street. He was known as the hanging general during the boer war because he lynched loads of innocent black people. There is a cul-de-sac coming off it in the shape of a hangmans noose. If you look at it on google maps it shows the noose as a straight line. You have to look at streetveiw to see its true shape.

                            Damn you’ve rumbled me. The pin codes are easier.
