For anyone interested, Murray beat Federer today in Abu Dhabi and will play Nadal in the final tomorrow. Just thought I'd mention it in case anyones bored and didn't realise it was on as could prove a good game! On the other hand - suggestions of amusing place names are welcome  |

I would do a lot of mucky things to Shakira if I could get away with it.

Abu Dhabi has to be one of the most satisfying place names to say. Tegucigalpa being another.

But the best name ever (in my view, at any rate) is a little closer to home in East Yorkshire. Holme-upon-Spalding-Moor is a tiny village (and ex-RAF station) between York and Hull. I drove past there years ago and fell in love with the name there & then. |

There's some cracking village names across these Isles... Quite a few up here.

There's a village down the road called Fulking. Always makes me smile when I drive through it. Sad I know.

I drive through Duntish sometimes...its in Dorset and for me its always tempting to shave a tad off the righthand side of the D when driving past the Welcome to Duntish sign.
