The Tee-shirt is now in good productive use for cleaning the car.
The Video was on Betamax and now untransferable.

Westward Ho!

(I thought it was time we raised the tone of this discussion - although not by too much of course. )

Is that where we get Devonshire Tea? What makes it special?

One of the things that makes Westward Ho! special is that it's the only place name in the UK with an exclamation mark! But I suspect that you can also get a Devonshire Tea there. Now, do you want cream first? Or jam first?

Not necessarily unusual town names but the county I grew up in Ohio had so many little villages, burgs, and wide-spots-in-the-road with official names that we held the record for getting "Saaaaa-LUTE's" on the Hee-Haw show.

It helped that Connie Smith was from there and appeared on one of the early episodes and they "Saaaa~LUTED" her hometown that night. (Warner, Ohio ~ Population 68)

Just a few years earlier, she used to change my diapers.
