Can't believe you forgot the pride of Dorset: Scratchy Bottom and Shitterton.

And yes, Shitterton is over a thousand years old and has always meant something like that

Let's not forget Dorset also has the village of Sandy Balls

The Dorsetian invasion of Hampshire has begun! My dozens of Shattered World CK2 runs have prepared me for this day

I can't belive they didn't include Westward Ho!, the only place name in the UK which officially includes an exclamation mark.

Not sure if I want to live in Beer or Catbrain. Is there a Catbeer?
