    Some houses like little old cottages or big country houses or farms ect do have house names but when see "normal" houses on "normal" streets that have had the number replaced by a name I tend to think its a little pretentious, the car on the drive often has private plates as well :eek: never mind each to their own
     
  12. I hate house names, You live on a normal road give out your house name not the number though, oh no that would be too easy, make the poor sod thats looking for your stupidly named house drive up and down the road 5 times because you've put a stupid little sign behind a bush where it cant be seen, but the number 47 is perfectly clear but nooooo you have put your address as little cottage, its an ex council town house for gods sake! Rant over.

    Did i mention i dont like house names.

  14. There's a sign in our porch that says Heathlea, looked on an old OS map and it has been known as that for quite some time but we don't use it. Maybe we ought too.
     
  15. Ours is called The Barn.



























    Have a guess what it might be.

  17. A few years ago when we had a LOT of rabbits, a friend of ours suggested we call our house Warren Mitchell. :D

    Although we didn't go for it, the sad git that I am, I used the idea to rename our home computer network's workgroup WARRENMITCHELL. After all, 'WORKGROUP' sounds so boring...... ;)
     
  18. Anyone who replaces their house number with a name is just queer

  20. Mine's called No 60.
    Not very poetic but the postie likes it.
