There used to be a street somewhere in the City of London which, fantastically, was called Gropecunt Lane.

True story. computer says no ! (well multimap and streetmap) Think the operative words are "used to be"  Will no doubt have changed at some point. There is a place called Twatt in the Orkneys!  |
