    Dont worry folks, It's the name of my local rock festival. :)

    http://www.cockermouthrockfestival.com/

    There were some really good bands, for the size of festival. The holloways, max raptor, the conspiritors were all there, the dangleberrys were good as well, but the band that really grabbed me was BB Blackdog.

    Two Basses.
    A drummer.
    Period.:hyper:

    Was really good to see such a diverse range of bands as well.

    For instance i came out of the bar stage having just watched Water's Edge, a good litle acoustic rock group, And within 5 minutes I was in a wall of death listening to hollowpoint (thrash metal)

    What an amazing weekend, and all for a measaly £33 (Includes camping)

    Anyone else there?

    Cockermouth sounds like an even better place to live than Cummington.

    Wow, I just looked that up, Twatt is a real place in Scotland's Shetland Islands. I'm going to be smiling about that all day.

    This is where my homeland shines! Here in Finland we have dozens of small towns and bodies of water named after genitalia. And no, I'm not kidding or trolling. These are the actual names of some places here.

    So here are a few translated roughly:
    Takalisto = Hindquarters
    Mulkkusaari = Dick Island, which is located in Kivesjärvi = Lake Testicle
    Kiveslahti = Testicle bay
    Iso Mällineva = Big Cum Swamp
    Pallivaha = Scrotum wax
    Saaranpaskantamasaari = The Isle that Saara defecated (Literally, the isle that came from Saara's anus)
    Myrkky = Poison
    Homeperseensuo = Moldy ass swamp
    Horo = Whore
    Kiimamaa = The land of rut
    Hinthaara = Gay crotch
    Juustovaara = Cheese danger
    Möykky = Lump
    Kusipää = Douchebag

    If you're doubting me, please feel free to look up these places on some global map service and ask another Finnish fellow what it means.

    I would definitely buy property in snugglemuffin but it's been said to smell of tuna. Not to mention, I love having friends around, but too many of my dicks hang around there... I'd never get to sleep at night.

    Been to Helsinki and learnt a few cool words off the TV. And I enjoyed the songs played on Headbangers' Ball.
