I hope nobody thinks I'm being smutty. I remember seeing a signpost in a country lane in Warwickshire called Bell End. I bet the locals get ribbed over that one.Pearlymannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-85509098159203669912010-04-25T02:49:18.321+01:002010-04-25T02:49:18.321+01:00Hello There!

It was always such a dread at who would be the first to make a mistake, and get tangled in the ribbons! I remember the music on tape too, so amusing!<br /><br />Those are great lane names! Maybe we all ought to discover and post about ones local to our area? xLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03800196831833931842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-15922161379133782692010-04-23T20:31:30.188+01:002010-04-23T20:31:30.188+01:00What a good idea! - I vote you put a notice up in ...What a good idea! - I vote you put a notice up in the postoffice window 'Wanted - ladies of a certain age for Maypole Dancing Group'.

There's a Rampant Horse Street in Norwich, I think we can hazard a guess at what may have happened there lol.topchelseagirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03184553018734994467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-17684139342697365712010-04-23T15:59:23.418+01:002010-04-23T15:59:23.418+01:00I guess if you walk up 8 acre lane and back down a...I guess if you walk up 8 acre lane and back down again then you've covered 16 acres :D<br />I love strange place names, it's fun just looking at maps sometimes and finding new ones.<br />If you're not enjoying all that sun then pop up to me and you can enjoy the rain/snow/wind we're having ;)<br />And I vote you bring back the may pole dancing. We've lost too many of our local customs and that is definately one I'd love to see.Tazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575542198843990599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-80627464666200200382010-04-23T15:02:45.645+01:002010-04-23T15:02:45.645+01:00I love the idea of a May pole and what's wrong...I love the idea of a May pole and what's wrong with paganism - as you say what a misguided woman. I love May blossom too, the hedgerows round here are just gorgeous at the moment. My favourite name has to be one that recently changed - boo, however it was previously called Butt Hole Road :) Carry on dreaming, that's what keeps us going.<br />Twiggy xTwiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09065849697979313992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-75095262352208931322010-04-23T13:47:10.249+01:002010-04-23T13:47:10.249+01:00The children get to dance round the may pole at nu...The children get to dance round the may pole at nursery, will be Nathaniel's turn next spring.<br /><br />Big dreams are the best, I have lots too.<br /><br />And I always think that Slack Bottom (a tiny hamlet above Hebden Bridge) would be a very appropriate place for me to live and maybe run a cake shop!!<br /><br />xxxDaisiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13865419216624616768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897535544713187700.post-74408519024114262062010-04-23T13:41:27.879+01:002010-04-23T13:41:27.879+01:00Thanks for comment on my blog!

Go to Attic24 to learn crochet...its soooo easy!<br />I agree, I think you should make it your ambition to bring back the maypole! lol<br />I loved my time of summers in Sweden where the midsommer festivals are centred around the maypole, truly gorgeous to see the little girls in their summer frocks and fresh flower crowns! lovely xFondant Kisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18379052496344006535noreply@blogger.com
