Gravy
Before I tell my tale I need to clarify that I am a shandy drinking southerner and sound like a great big poof.
When our daughter was learning to talk I asked her at the dinner table talk if she would like more gravy. Except I said it with one of those funny northern accents: Grairvih. She repeated this and it was very funny. She repeated it every time she asked for Grairvi from then on and oh how we laughed and thought it was cute.
She's now 8 and it was only this year with the school's intervention that she now says the word correctly.

No I'm not prejudice, my mother brought me up correctly
Sat down having a meal with my mother in a restaurant when we overheard a woman at the next table saying, "What do you call those people? You know, the ones that are worse than the Jews?"
Sadly we never did find out who was worse than the Jews as we were laughing too much. We still joke about it today.

Morecambe
I lived there for 6 months. Reasons include:
In the one cold autumn that I was there most people walked around in just a T-Shirt presumably trying to convince themselves of sunnier climates elsewhere.
Pubs contained nobody younger than 45 and the one person my age that I spoke to asked me where he could get clean needles.
Frontierland has the scariest and oldest rides I have ever been on. I genuinely feared for my life.
The one time I went out for a meal the maitre'd was so bored and drunk that he pulled up a chair and joined us. He was very drunk and the conversation was neither pleasant or coherent.
People die there, the old, the chinese and the bored alike.
There was a massive pile of rubble behind the station, 2 months after living there I ventured behind said rubble and discovered the other half of the town.
True, this was over 10 years ago and it might well have turned into a trendy place for wankers but I some how doubt it.
