Re: Schoolboy humour
When I was on holiday in St Louis,I made several trips to Uranus.Each visit was rewarding and many Americans study in Uranus,A local news service(TV) interviewed a local senator asking "What would you say in the best thing about Uranus" to which she replied"It is a destination where anyone can be accommodated-we have a diverse range of lodging suited to all budgets"The local people felt very proud of their town.whiuch incidentally is twinned with two Dorset villages. Shitterton and Piddletown

Shitterton
According to the mathematician Keith Briggs, who keeps an informative website on this burning topic, the name is probably derived from a river called Shiter, "a brook used as a privy".

"Campaigns by residents to effect name-changes that might give the area a bit more class are, by and large, destined to fail, according to Hurst. "There's a Slutshole Lane in Norfolk that is still called Slutshole Lane, despite residents' best efforts," he recalls. "And there's a Butthole Road, which they're trying to change to - wait for it - Buttonhole Road."
