ScoobieFloz Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 As I stumbled across 'Knob Lane' last week it reminded me of all the funny place names I have seen over the years. My inner child has now decided to do a tour and collect them all in an album. So if anyone has suggestions I am starting to build the list. Link to comment

bmwhere? Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 There's some great place names in Germany - only really funny to English speakers First up the village of "w*** in Algau". The funny thing about this place name, is that in the German language, a man from the village of w*** would be a "w***er"! A woman would be a "w***erin". Another favourite with British tourists just across the Border into Austria, is the village of "Fu©king". Who knows whats going on there Nearby there are also villages called "Hucking" and "Franking" which would be really funny if "Fu©king" wasn't there! Another place I stumbled across one day was the village of "Killer"! I didn't fancy stopping in that place! Not a place name, but funny a company name that nearly made me crash when I drove past: In the town of Villingen is a company called "Limberger Fuchs Koch & Partner". In German Fuchs means Fox and Koch is Cook. I also came across a restaurant in Munich which made me laugh... "China Restaurant Man Fat"! I really don't recommend trying their special sauce Link to comment
