Manger
Talking of remote places to live, I was mooching around in West Wicklow today and discovered a few placenames even an Ordnance Survey map freak like me hadn't come across before, my favourite being Manger. If pronounced to rhyme with 'banger', the local disco could be full of mingers from Manger. If pronounced to rhyme with 'danger', ugly local redheads could be Manger ginger mingers.

Manger is pronounced the French way. It's the French cuisine capital of north west Wicklow, but doesn't like to broadcast the fact.
