Re: Tittybong (Australia)
There are 2 villages in Hertfordshire called Ugley and Nastey. Apparently the local press were able to have a field day a few years ago and print the headline - "Ugley woman marries Nastey man".

Re: Tittybong (Australia)
on my 2nd aussie trip we were driving from airlie beach down the queensland coast when we came across signs for "flaggy rock" and "upper flaggy rock"....
not particulary funny names but even just writing them now i'm giggling again! it's just something about the word "flaggy".... i swear we had to pull the car over because there was a danger of either a)crashing or b) peeing ourselves with laughter....
i guess you kinda had to be there!
