Cocks
Fanny Hands Lane
Fan Y Bîg
Fingeringhoe
Great Bottom Flash
Great Cockup
Lickey End
Pants
Piddle Valley
Pratts Bottom
Rotten Bottom
Scratch Arse Ware
Sheepy Magna
Shitterton
Slag Lane
Tickle Cock Bridge
Titty Ho
Twatt
Wetwang

BTW every one of these are real placenames.

Speaking of maps, I am once again tracing the Connecticut River to its source lake(s). I keep thinking maybe a bike packing trip following it north until the end, er, start, which is the 4th Connecticut Lake (not the first, thus the end/start confusion). Along the way there’s this weird little jag of Vermont into New Hampshire, which must have an interesting back story.

conjunction of VT (lower left), NH (right) and Canada (upper left) where NH/VT continue being separated by the Connecticut until it reaches the same latitude of Canada’s border. Also, the NH/Canada border is a super squiggly northward line that appears to have once followed a river which of course keeps changing course.
The start of the Connecticut river is in a little gallbladder of a pond just below Canadian border (you have to hike to it, maybe even crossing into Canada) that then feeds into a much larger 3rd Connecticut lake

Australia is home to some of the harshest deserts on Earth—scorching heat, extreme drought, and landscapes that look almost extraterrestrial. But what if these barren lands could be transformed?
In this video, we dive into one of the most ambitious reforestation projects in the world: the Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor. Spanning over 10,000 km², this initiative is restoring degraded farmland, planting millions of trees, and bringing life back to one of the driest places on Earth."
