Swale Your Nidd

What do Sid, Allen, Jordan, Lee, Ray, Ant and Don have in common?

They are all english rivers.

When my sister had to learn the rivers of England at school, she liked the ring of Swale, Ure, Nidd, which sounded like invective. 'Oh, go swale your nidd, why don't you?'

Here are some more English rivers:

Yarty, Piddle, Gwash, Og, Quaggy, Erewash and Horsey Pill.

Make up your own river swear words.

Then reward yourself with a glass of Moselle (flows through Tottenham Cemetery).

Unless you have any of the following: Pyl, Itchen, Mole, Gipping, Soar, Ouse, Irt or Blackwater.

In which case, find a clinic.
