Throcking

Slight off topic but I like this one - I think I could use it as an alternative swear word ...so thanks for the inspiration!

Great pleasure! Look no further than the UK for similarly useful names. Here in Suffolk we have Gosbeck, which my doctor uses as in "This stethoscope is utterly Gosbecked!" There is a wonderful little book called The Meaning of Liff, offering definitions for place names around the world. Scrabster in Scotland is particularly inventive, but I could get a warning!

Many thanks for that - I'm now proud owner of the Kindle edition , as I have great trouble now reading "real" books as my throcking eyes are somewhat gosbecked...
