I refer you to the cornier efforts on Marcello's famous tube/band thread on ILE.

I am giggling at the thought that anthony will think these places are really landmarks and will ask directions to Caledonian Road when he visits London.

Proper answer(?): Towers (sic) of London - XTC

Is the Caledonian Road not where all the really rough prostitutes are?
