Dog Woof Lane: Please Vote Now & Help the RSPCA

[lonelymom]

Large thanks to the five OBs who've voted so far. Please keep those votes coming.

Sadly I'm not an OB , just a skint parent of one current pupil and a soon-to-be pupil

[Angela Woodford]

There! Dog Woof Lane has my vote.

[midget]

I voted, and have forwarded the request to a number of people.

[Mr Moobs]

(Just a quick post to put this thread back up at the top again.)

Ta.

clever

[anniexf]

Just thought I'd ask the obvious question: Moobs? Is this frank, or self-deprecatory, or ...?

Who cares, it's a brilliant name! Although, I am sorry to hear that you may have moobs

Haha, I actually really like the name. I came across a Lane in Devon while on family holiday one year with an interesting name - there is a photo of us all standing next to "Pig Leg Lane"!
I just think it's really sad that over here in Canada, most streets are just given a number. For example you could live on 10324 - 86 Avenue or 10932- 111 Street. BORING!!!!!!!!
It's nice that some places in the world like to be a little more inventive

[Mr Moobs]

Exasperatingly, the city council have now decided that a list will be made of all the public's sugestions for the new streetname and that there will be a Second Round of voting in September. How very silly. I'll let y'all know when voting starts (and what the eventual outcome is). Annoyingly, the name Florence Nightingale Way has proved popular - voted for, evidently, by morons who don't realise that Ms Nightingale already has two streets and a pub here named after her, plus there are a couple of statues of her.

Erm....Lonelymom, I have putative moobs but I'm working hard to make 'em vamoose. I'd like to stress, though, that they're only chubbiness-moobs, not genetic moobs.

Yes, there should definitely be more bizarre streetnames. Only one has survived in the whole of Derby and sadly it's not in the city centre. It's at Wilmorton, about a mile-and-a-half out. It's Dead Man's Lane.....there was a plague-pit there, one understands. Sadly it's now merely a cul-de-sac on a business park. But a pretty cool address for one's business.

Definitely a good name for a business address, but can you imagine if that business park was ever converted into residential? Would you want to live in Dead Man's Lane??? Scary!

[Ajarn Philip]

Scary? Dear lonelymum - just for you - "Arachnoid Avenue"...

[lonelymom]

NOT FUNNY PHILIP! I wouldn't/couldn't ever live in a road called that. I'd love to live in Dog Woof Lane though

Florence Nightingale Way is soooo boring in comparison.

[jhopgood]

Seems that Laura Croft won it, or have I got the wrong road?

[J.R.]

I've 'voted'

Isn't it Lara Croft?

I've 'voted'

I think you may be too late, J.R. ...
