There's a place near us called Herstmonceux. You should hear the knots people tie themselves in with that!

Loughborough... not really a hate but- I had a Australian guy ask me for directions to Loughborough...

he pronounced it like

'Looga-ba-rooga'

I and many of my mates now pronounce it 'looga-ba-rooga'... we do the same with many other places too

Been asked a few times where Beaver Street is when in town and then point to the sign reading Belvoir Street and say "You're on it". Can't blame them though.

Incidentally, Asterix is a cartoon character. This - * - is an asterisk.
