There were at least a dozen 'Gropecunt Lanes' in Mediaeval England.

London's has featured in several recent docos.

Nothing ceases to amaze me about what's news to posters on this board.

Pity there's no 'Twatsnatch Street' in London.
Now that WOULD be news.

I was alluding to the fact that some posters on here seem to have little general knowledge, and that a lot of what many of us know, seems to come as a surprise to them.

I'd say it's fairly esoteric but we may have to agree to disagree on that.
