Re: Anything from Cabin Pressure
I read this topic yesterday and nothing instantly sprang to mind. Today, pushing my mail trolley around, two sprang to mind:
Benbecula to Temecula
Osmington Mills to Beverly Hills
I wonder how many people have ever done these particular journeys?

That's quite a clever one, because they're pronounced differently (assuming you mean the ones in Kent and Dorset). Not so sure about the other two (the two Rainhams are pronounced identically, and the last pair don't rhyme at all).jamesthegill wrote:Gillingham to Gillingham

Re: Anything from Cabin Pressure
How to make a fairly local rhyming journey slightly more challenging whilst still rhyming:
Horley to Crawley via Chorley
Google maps shows this as a journey of exactly 500 miles, so if you're name is Charlie or Craig Reid you're halfway to a decent song.
