You're just making up place names now, aren't you. Yes, glostenshire and wonkenham put the uk in quite a sticky wicket, i do say

Those are almost real places. It's Gloucestershire (pronounced Glos-ter-shr) and Wokingham (pronounced woah-king-em).

Reminder that one of the original spellings of Gloucester was literally just Gloster, and then someone deliberately forced the other.
