The Brits seem to have some weird fascination with body parts.... every other pub I know of is named somebody's arms or somebody's head... take a sampler:
The Weavers Arms
The Old King's Head
The Nag's Head
The Drovers Arms

its good still.. lest they start using other unmentionable body parts.. would be a bit gross to enter "The Royal Arse"
ReplyDeleteNow now... that really is taking it too far... I have brit friends and I'd hate to offend them :) Besides... Brits are the prim and proper people as we know them... no risk of them ever using unmentionables :)
ReplyDeleteThe base form of most Brit names are derived from body parts. Encoded in some cases, pretty direct in the others.
