They don't ring a bell, but it's been a while since I was down there. I used to like the old pub on the main road out of Ilfracombe. Can't remember the name of it, thatched roof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend called Moran who says it actually should have the stress on the first syllable - MOR-an. But because of it sounding like 'moron', most Morans will go with the (technically incorrect) Mo-RAN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just that they sound quite clearly different but that when used in context it'll be quite clear anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my Moran friend lives in England, and gave up that fight a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bickster Posted September 14 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted September 14 Went for a walk before, just down the road to the river, along the prom and back up to the main road where me and the missus indulged in a few drinks.
