I so wanted to take a picture of it but the auto guy just went by too fast for me to do so.... given the industry i am in it would have served as a great internal joke..

Wet Beaver Creek is not in Australia. It is in Arizona.

The other Australian ones sound real, and I know Spuzzum is in Canada because I've been there.

Now that we had so much fun at kissing (Germany)....

Fast Thinking!!

A guy from Holeby, Denmark had owned a farm that had a pond in the back and some apple and peach trees.
One evening the guy decided to go down to the pond and he grabbed a ive-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.
As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee. Coming closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.
One of the women shouted to him, "We're not coming out until you leave!"
Holding the bucket up, he said, "But I'm here to feed the alligator."

Lovely... Just lovely...!

Talking about places' names, how does "Nu bra" sound here...?

And just btw, even if it was called "Ol bra", it would still have been as lovely...!

Cheers...!

Wankdorf, in Switzerland I believe.
Cockermouth, Cumbria.

May I ask why Dildo in Canada is mentioned twice in that list, once in capital letters?

I recently heard of someone called Mr Lund, which should amuse folk here. Of course, "London" is pronounced rather like it too.
