Mosside in Manchester England, is not a nice place to be very rough and ready. it is ASBO city. Bloomsbury in London on the other hand is very upper class and wealthy area. Carstairs is in Scotland.

[D.R. Cattle]

How about Yeehaw Junction, FL. It's about 3 minutes from my house. It's really just a spot where 2 highways cross each other. It consists of 2 gas stations and a bar. The bar is called "The Desert Inn" which is so old it's on the historical register. It was originally known as "Jackass Junction" for the jackasses in the pasture at the junction. The place came to be because of 2 major cattle drive trails that came together there.
