  2. Why do childhood makeup-names sound better& more appropriate than the real thing ?
    Lightling is ACE!
    When i was a nipper, i called the local town of Sowerby Bridge "Strawberry Bridge" Much better I,m sure you'll agree!

  3. Strawberry bridge - now that's a place I'd visit though there might not be a bridge left afterwards.

    Here's another childhood mispronounced word nearly everyone has uttered...Pisketti.
