Charades? I thought we were playing "Make Up Place Names that Sound Rude".

There is a place called 'Scratchy Bottom' in Dorset.

that's quite a famous one. I prefer these two examples, also in Dorset

Wancombe Bottom

Smacam Down
A lot of people don't believe that the loch ness monster exists. Now, I don't know anything about zooology, biology, geology, herpetology, evolutionary theory, evolutionary biology, marine biology, cryptozoology, palaeontology or archaeology... but I think... what if a dinosaur got into the lake?

  • God? She's black.
I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.
