Scots destination included in man's round-the-world 'Rude Trip'

A man has embarked on the ultimate RUDE trip - visiting hundreds of places with naughty names around the world including Twatt in Orkney.

Nicholas Hale has spent 26 years seeking out the most hilariously cheeky destinations across the globe, including everything from Fucking in Austria and Clit in Romania to Wank Mountain in Germany and Turkey Cock Lane right here in the UK.

The 50-year-old's obsession started when he was driven through Wetwang as a child - a village near his home in Scarborough, North Yorkshire.

Since then, the singer and comedian has used his job as a cruise ship performer to help him visit some of the world's rudest places.

Nick, uses any means of transport necessary to reach his destination - many of which are in obscure and remote locations throughout Europe.

He said: "It's a pathetic obsession really but I think everyone can relate a little bit.

"Whenever most people see a rude place name, they have a little childish chuckle to themselves.

"Some of the places I make a special trip to, some I research once I know where I'm headed with work and some I just come across by chance.

"The key for me is the commitment to getting there.

"They can be in really remote places, completely isolated and a pain to get to but I'll do whatever it takes.

"Some of them are also hard to find because the locals keep stealing the signs or destroying them.

"In so many of these places, people complain because they see house prices drop due to the street or village name which is crazy really as I'm sure they could capitalize on it.

"My whole family are comedians, so I was always brought up in a jokey, happy and humorous environment.

"Having said that I think my mum is sometimes embarrassed about what her friend's might think.

"It's probably quite childish and some people might think 'get a life' but there's nothing wrong with being a bit silly sometimes."
