Please tell me there is a proposal for a new station in Kent called No Deal so I can decide if I want to travel to Deal or No Deal :D

Neither an Elephant nor a Castle

And my head didn't get stuck in the ground in Ed-in-burrow (sorry)
There is an Elephant but it is light hearted so I won't go too far into it

This is a bit of a bad one,

No Goats in gates and Ramsgate?

I think the stairs are quite thin in Broadstairs

I have never ever seen any herons at Martins Heron. Nor for that matter any triangles at Winnersh Triangle. Plenty of rich people at Richmond though.

Me and me Mum and me Dad and me Gran went to Waterloo, not many people enjoying buckets of vindaloo (or trains to Paris, for that matter).

This is what a park in Bermuda looks like...

This is what Bermuda Park looks like. Sadly no azure sea or palm trees, but there's a disused canal and some lovely palisade fencing:

No body knew about the graveyard in Bury but there was

plenty of stale meat in Oldham though.

The quick ringers in Belfast were very appealing

People talking on the slopes of Chathill.

There's no Loughborough at Loughborough Junction.

Similarly Denmark is nowhere to be found anywhere near Denmark Hill!

There's no Royal Parks at Park Royal, no long lines of clothes hangers at Hanger Lane, no chilli sauce at Perivale and most likely no Green Ford's at Greenford (since its car park is tiny).

There used to be an extra one in Bacup when it was open

And these used to be motor cyclists at Byker

And has anyone seen the very old criminal long ago at Crook?

And they even used to do a lot of harvesting at Grain

And I never could find the old screwed up tree at Knotty Ash
