Just read this thread with a chuckle! Dom's new link about the telegraph pole appreciation society had me in stitches reading it!!
Just loved your sense of humour...

That society sums up everything that is good about Britain.
I love the ad for their book (and yes, there is a book):
______________________________________________________________________________________
This is the book you’ve all been waiting for. And probably your entire lives if only you knew it. Prize-winning*1 author Martin Evans has put together 150 pages of the finest, most colourful, most distalgesic telegraphic information and other stuff about your favourite tall wooden sticky-uppy things. Many years in the making. It’s got 150 shiny pages, a front, a back, an inside as well as an outside and words galore. Plus we know you love facts so we’ve put in some of those as well. This is the book that just keeps on giving.
Here are three words that the publishers used to describe this book:
Humourous
Whimsical
Eccentric
Here are three more words. The ones the publishers didn’t use.
Audacious
Heartwarming
Cumulonimbus

I found the site because I was setting a geocache and needed to know what the funny ceramic knobbly things on top of the poles are called. The information was for a multi part geocache, where you follow a trail, get to a location, answer a question, and use the answer to work out the next set of coordinates. In this instance, there was an old telegraph pole lying in the middle of the wood. The question was "What was the number on the left hand knobbly bit?". Only I didn't call it knobbly bit, I used the correct word, because the society told me what it was.
I have since forgotten the word again, and it no longer is part of the cache, because a load of trees blew down in a storm and covered it all up. But I will always remember how helpful they were at the Telegraph Pole Appreciation Society. Oh yes.
