Thread Name: BS: Unusual Street/Road Names
Subject: RE: BS: Unusual Street/Road Names
In York (UK) a lot of the streets are Something-gate from the viking language, and there is one called Whipma-Whopma gate. To add to the oddity, the three houses are numbered one, one and a half and two! Imagine getting arrested when drunk in a different town and trying to persuade a policeman that your address is One and a half Whipma-Whopmagate!
