A few miles up the road from me there's a village called Ugley; and a few miles off to the west there's another called Nasty. It's said that at one time there used to be a joint annual social event between the Ugley Women's Institute and the Nasty Men's Social Cluib, but I don't know about that.

I think I've told this on before, but it fits in here. NB the vowels are crucial, and vowel sounds in Southern England are very different from Northern England:

There was a fanous Antarctic explorer called Sir Vivian Fuchs - and he pronounced his name as if it was spelt "Fooks", being a South England man.

Anyway he does to a ceremonial dinner up North, and the chairman of the dinner makes a welcoming speech - in which he keeps referring to him as "Sir Vivian Fuchs" - with a short "u", which meant the pronounciation was the same way Southerners pronounce the f word.

So after a while Sir Vivian leans over and whispers in his ear: "Actually, it's pronounced Fooks".

The dignitary looks shocked "I can't go saying "Fooks" - there are ladies present!"
