Does this make sense to you?
I think its only something us down my way say, and some people just cant understand what it means. So does it sound normal to you, or am I mad?

It's a regional thing. Some people say it instead of just "where is it?"

It makes sense to me. Andyman's post reminds me of the black country alphabet.
