Reply to: Hinckley...

[NickFitz]

Back in the Eighties a friend of mine was hitching on the edge of Hinckley. A van driver pulled up and said "Hey mate, do you know where the power station is?"

"What, Hinkley Point power station?"

The driver glanced at his clipboard and said "Yeah, that's it."

"Yes, I know where that is. It's in Somerset."

"What? Oh, ****!"

Proof that some people don't need satnav - they can go just as badly wrong reading the index of a road atlas

Good responses - I'll work in Solihull instead!

[MarillionFan]

Nope, do I bollocks.

I found MF's predicament amusing in a schadenfreude type way though.

The remains of that conversation went offline very very quickly. Needless to say the follow up post wasnt going to get a thumbs up either!

I was thinking of Berkley for some reason, another place where there's a nuclear power station. Do they all end in "kley".

"Hinkley" != "Hinckley"

Steady on, you'll have Admin telling us about his long lost welsh shemale cousin and dishing out lead balloons all round...

Isn't that Welsh for a shemale?

D'oh! I thought it was a little arse of a place between Birmingham, Nuneaton and Leicester.

I was struggling with the something nice bit. Bad and indifferent posed no problems.

I thought it was just a motorway services on the way from that London to somewhere altogether more civilised.

What's good, bad, indifferent about the place?

I'm there, on and off for 6 months.

Good place, lots to do.

We are just outside Hinckley. I consider it a poor man's Loughborough.

Is that like the Dutch saying "At least Holland is bigger than Belgium"?

You may draw your own inferences as to the exact nature of my sexuality but I prefer it to remain a private matter thankyou.

You've already made it public.

You're a crap sockie.
