Mine is in English?Where is the option I couldn’t see it?
There was an invisible question mark after "So the Seven Sisters Road leads to hills called the Seven Sisters".Which was the silly question?
A mistake certainly, and probably sloppiness too because I couldn't be bothered to google it for factchecking, but it was hardly silly. And there was no invisible question mark. It was a statement because I truly believed SS road lead to SS hills -- it made perfect sense, and still does. I may google it after all because I'm not entirely confident in your version.There was an invisible question mark after "So the Seven Sisters Road leads to hills called the Seven Sisters".
Oh.A mistake certainly, and probably sloppiness too because I couldn't be bothered to google it for factchecking, but it was hardly silly. And there was no invisible question mark.

Haha! Well we're both idiots then. I actually thought I'd learnt something new from your comment, but no, I still don't know why the SSR is so-named. I did learn that there are some hills with the same name though.Oh.
I thought you were making a joke. Anyway, "serious answer to a silly question" isn't a poke at the questioner, it's a poke at oneself for taking some fun too seriously.

... and I read what you’d looked up, but your research being incomplete I realised the pursuit of such knowledge would require a younger man to take over, a Stephen Hawking to your Roger Penrose....so I looked it up. Elms, not Oaks:
"The name is derived from seven elms which were planted in a circle with a walnut tree at their centre on an area of common land known as Page Green.[4] The clump was known as the Seven Sisters by 1732.[5]"
