            The sign for Rattery in Devon on the A30 (?) always makes me smile when I drive past it.

            I suppose it's the idea of people taking their pet rats somewhere to be cared for while they're away on holiday. But then some people really _do_ have pet rats, so they must take them somewhere before going away. So maybe there really are ratteries.
