#liffisms

This came about from an earlier tweet about Douglas Adams and a discussion which meandered towards one of his books, written with John Lloyd and called "The Meaning of Liff".... A friend of mine had a copy, and the image to the right brought it all back to me when I took a look...
The book is available in full online...

It provides a range of terms which are connected up to place-names, to give a new 'meaning' to both...

I had a Twitter exchange with a few folks a few weeks ago, where we tried to come up with some new additions, and I thought that this might make a good context for writing about places: to create a new set of places linked to quirky things...

Needs a bit more work maybe...
