Annoyed

:confused: hi all i ended up annoying my self now i'v shanghaied my own thread been obnoxious talked cr*p so the toys are out of the pram and i am not playing we went to Wales on holliday in july some place called langookatchawollabanggogo i think asked spell check said no idea perhaps some yak-ee-darr might know there's-luverly-boyo
 
you cannot spell it ends in gogogoch and it means sumat or uther boyo
 
If you mean Llanfairpg... It means something like the Church of St Mary by the white aspen near the whirlpool by the red cave etc etc.

It was a manufactured name to name the railway station in the 19th C, so they could have the longest place name and a bit of fame.
 
Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit, meaning the 'City of Angels', otherwise known as bangkok thiland .:D:D:D . The place with the longest name in common usage is a 252 metre high hill in Central Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. Taumata whaka tangi hanga koauau o tamatea turi pukakapi ki maunga horo nuku poka i whenua kitana tahu translates as the 'place where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, who slid, climbed and swallowed mountains, known as land-eater, played his flute to his loved one'. makes this one seem a bit shortish Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch ......... there is a place in dumfries & galloway, scotland called AE thats about the shortest unless anyone knows better:p:p:p ps i think there is a vilage in france named , y

There's a place called F*cking in Austria and another called Hell in Norway. Seems to sum things up quite well!
 
i know of a vilage named crackpot in north yorkshire now what does that say !!!!
 
There's a place called A in Norway, but this link

i-r-genius.com - Rude Place Names

gives details of some classics including Chinaman's Knob (Australia), Felchville (Vermont), and the comical "******s Corner" (Oregan)

The place in Oregan was so "rude" the board censor starred it out so you'll have to visit the link to see just how rude it was!

If you're gonna slag the Scots - at least get their lingo right - its "och aye the noo" and the correct veg to have with haggis is tatties and neeps (turnips, which the English call swedes).

and i'll have you know that here in yorkshire (the heart of england) turnips and swedes are two different veg one is purple on the outside and orange inside and the other is green on the outside and white on the inside if you don't know the first one is the turnip

Mao Tse-Tung ? :D I thought it was Donald Pleasance playing that villain in the Bond movies :cool:
 
All these references to sheep remind me of a line from the British show QI.

Q What do you call a sheep tied up to a lamp post in a Welsh town?
A The local entertainment centre.

Don't blame me - it was a BRITISH show - and anyway, any Australian sheep joke invariably involves one or more New Zealanders.

Waddya mean "my mate maingate"?

Never heard of you before. Just another example of somebody social climbing methinks. Find a celebrity and cling to his coat tail. :mad:

Firefox gets a gold star and syldale gets detention. :D

I once saw some Aussies pulling a Kiwi into their boat and I was touched at their actions. I thought this animosity must be untrue. I found out later that they were using the Kiwi as bait for catching sharks. :eek:
