this tickled my sense of humour

Name this town in scotland

stupid chips!

Tricia

Ooo Ooo OOOO! I've got it!! Pick me!!!

what is it then

Dumbfries or Dumfries if you're going with the real spelling

yes - that's correct -it all came about because I took a call from someone who mispronounced the word and when I mentioned to someone who comes from there she said stupid chips andwe both started to laugh

Tricia

I tend to associate this place with Bladder Removed - am I in the right area?

can't work out where you are - so I cannot confirm of you are in the reight area

Tricia

Gall-away!

you are definitely in the right area

Tricia

No he isn't. He lives in Three pointed fortress.

This reminds me of a poster I've got by Martin Hanford (who does the 'Where's Wally?' books).
It's a map of Britain and Ireland but the places are illustrated in a comical fashion. Some of them are pictures of associated characters (e.g. Nottingham - Robin Hood, Tintagel - King Arthur) and others take the name literally:
Reading - people reading books
Looe - a toilet
Bath - a bathtub
Runcorn - ears of corn with legs, running
Barrow in Furness - people putting a wheelbarrow into a furnace
Dungeness - a letter 'S' in a dungeon
Coleraine - beople being hit by falling coal
Cork - a cork
And Dumfries is stupid chips!
