Heres my local version :hihi: :hihi:

On the Moor to Pitsmoor,
Chased around in Burngreave,
ended up in High Greave!
Got lots of Tales from Fir Vale,
Went through a wall in Page Hall,
Mugged & Drugged in Firth Park,
Got lost then Shot in the dark!
Offered stolen goods in Roe Woods,
Found a burned out tank on Wincobank
Needed skill to dodge Spital Hill
further up the road - I got a load
of gangsta's doin lots of fraud!
I ended up at the A&E
of the Northern General - I was so pleased!

I've been everywhere man,
it's safer in Afghanistan!

At the risk of getting a forum warning, I have heard a version of this which ... errr ... referred largely to growths of hair which were not located on the head.

no, i just sat and thought of a few place names. try to keep em rhyming or sounding right...
when you get to the bit about breathing mountain air, man i suggest Tinsley air, man as it's supposed to be the worst air in the city on account of the M1.
