Yet more puerile nonsense from Toytown Munich (just for a change). We're now proud to bring you, wait for it, amusing Munich streetnames! Makes you glad you paid your TT subscription doesn't it? Here are the names: Fürkhofstr. (Munich 81927), Tittastr. (80937), Bummstr. (80804), Arno-Assmannstr. (81739, photo by isaak), and Wankstr. (81377). For the benefit of our American readers, "to wank" is a British colloquialism meaning "self abuse". Further afield, let's not forget the infamous Wankbahn down near Garmisch Partenkirchen, or Rottenegg in Austria. According to Munich's address book there's also a chap by the name of Helmut Wank living in Munich-Laim and Richard Wanker living in Munich-Moosach. Shucks! There goes Toytown Munich's "family safe" rating from Google.

The name "Wank", pronounced "Vank", is pretty common in Germany. There's also a village near Stuttgart called Wankheim.

And of course there's a place called Rimsting near Chiemsee, Titting which is not too far away from Nuernburg and if you're up for far-out names in general ...and sorry Mr Toytown Editor for being slightly off-subject ...try these scientific ones:

How about "Rimstinger Strasse" in 81671 Ramersdorf? I don't know if there is a curry house on that street, but it'd be even funnier if there were.
