    Kellys corner in Dublin

    (frequently mentioned in ads and in conversation among locals but doesnt appear on any map and doesnt appear to exist officially)

    In East Belfast there is a "Hemp Street" but its a big disappointment. I wouldnt recommend going out of ones way to visit.

    Also I believe in Limerick there is a place called Knicker....so you have Knicker School, a Knicker Parish Priest and once I remember seeing the Knicker Parish Choir singing on TV.

    You won't believe this, but right next to Fannystown there's a Busherstown. Slightly south is Weneystown and slightly to the east is Horestown...:

    Not really a place, but there is a Bolivian football team called Deportivo Wanka, and I quote: *It was founded in 1996 and is named after the Wankas people"
