Surely you can find a geographical place not a "thing"? C'Mpn Mark , SKRIK WAKKER! (Please translate that Whatagain).... Whatagain can argue for me that the name of a bell is acceptable. He did say in his logic that it'd be splitting hairs to object and it's just like saying the Eifel Tower. Saying Big Ben is not a place but a bell is like saying Eiffel tower is not a place but a tower. Esp if you just comment to split hair.

Chennevières - outer suburb of Paris which had one of those rural discos in an old farm or something. I went there two or three times with friends, and those places were so weird. The people were much more extreme than in straightlaced Paris. I can't even begin to describe it.
