Haha road/place names?

I wanted to get a picture of myself at the pointy end of the arrow, but the chances of being run over seemed a little too hit.

Hmm, I thought it'd be warmer than 12 degrees

Not very exotic either:

California (US) gets snow. Lake Tahoe, one of Americas large ski resorts is partly in California (the rest in Nevada)

LA California

California, Birmingham

Yes, there's a lot of variety in the US California, but I think LA edges it

LA might, but remember, California is larger in area than the UK, and has at least as much variety of climate, if not more.

One from Kineton, I'd didn't dare stop to take my own picture

There's a dirty duck pub in Barrow in Furness, now closed. There are quite a few dirty duck pubs around though. Loads of dirty ducks in England.

Okay, so the name of the village "Linkinhorne" isn't funny as such. But a local wit used a marker to add a B at the start a y at the end of some of the signs to it.

Just like Shilbottle in Northumberland, no guesses needed to arrive at what that gets changed to

On this one yesterday. From the looks of the house prices, you'd need a few bob to live there.

Flagg, Peak District, where this lane lead to our campsite last weekend..
I did wonder what to expect, but it was fine 😉

Is that the one at Eynsford?

I believe the origins of the name came from the existance of a toll road that ran through Eynsford. Sparepenny Lane runs parallel to the main road, but was a bit further and didn't have a toll. So travellers could spare a penny by avoiding the toll road and taking this Lane.

I've seen signs for Pucklechurch changed too.
