Forgotten about this
If ever I drive past a close named after a person (councils name them after incredibly unmemorable people, ie Tom Smith Close) I am compelled to say "Where? Where?" and look round wildly.

I used to live near an address named ALan DRive and if ever we drove past another similarly named, I would say to my wife"Wonder if he knows alan drive?" She hated this and it was probably a contributory factor in our subsequent divorce.

Now I've written it down I can see why.

Actually
Your wife was having an affair with, and subsequently left you for, a man named Alan Drive.

Actually it was Tom Smith
He was obviously a bit closer than he should have been.
