I wanted to go to this, but I could not find it.

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago

Me neither, I think it's there somewhere.

[-] Codpiece@feddit.uk 11 points 5 days ago

Have either of you thought to ask for direction?

We named British towns over the centuries with the purpose of providing test data for the Scunthorpe problem when computers were finally invented

Wanna go to Bell End with me?

Clit hero

Knowing the UK it's probably pronounced "Iverno" or some nonsense

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

Clith-uhrow

First syllable rhyming with "with"

Final two like if you said "arrow" but starting with the u in "gun"

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

That puts the emphasis on the rr in arrow instead of the w. I'd say it sounds like wither but with a cl, then a standard oh.

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Ah I see what you mean, I guess mine leaves it a bit of ambiguity actually

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I knew that's how you pronounced it, but not how it's spelled ๐Ÿ˜‚

Clitheroe is good for one thing: a summer walk by the river when the sun's out.

For anything else, avoid like a plague village.

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Man I love a good summer's walk.

Avoid like a plague village? Is it boring there?

[-] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Depressed (economically and socially) northern town.

That should explain everything.

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Oh, so kinda like Leicester then ๐Ÿ˜‚

[-] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 1 points 4 days ago

When you're bored of Clit heroe, travel down to Penis tone!

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

There's a place in Virginia, US, called Intercourse ๐Ÿ˜‚

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 5 days ago

I had a friend who used to live there

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Small place I reckon

[-] Univ3rse@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 5 days ago

Who came to eat? ๐Ÿ˜œ

[-] Dis32@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Not me, I don't live there ๐Ÿ˜ž
