A 42-year-old mum has spent a decade posing in places with naughty names, tracking down locations ranging from Fucking in Austria to Thong in Kent.
Helen Guttridge, a mum-of-three from Kent, started her ultimate ‘rude-trip’ close to a decade ago.
The IT worker, from Runcorn Cheshire, says the aim is to visit as many naughty-sounding places as possible.
UK favourites include Dick Lane in Bradford and Morphany Lane in Warrington, while foreign faves include Willy and Bitche in France.
"It's a bit of an immature hobby really but I would love to tick them all off,” Helen said.
The odd mission began around 10 years ago, she said, when the family was on holiday in Cornwall.
“We drove through a place called Cocks and I couldn't resist getting a picture,” she said.
"It all stemmed from there really.
Helen said her husband bought her a map of funny UK place names for her birthday.
From that, she started doing a bit of research.
"If we are going anywhere, either abroad or in the UK, I will always do my homework and have a Google to see if there are any rude places nearby.”
She also would occasionally do a “little day trip” on her day off to get another photo under her belt.
"Friends tag me in places if they spot any and they tend to think it's a bit of a laugh,” she added.
While her children were quite young when she started, Helen said they were older now and “probably disapprove”.
However, she said it was “just a bit of fun”.
