Ohiopyle. It's in southern Pennsylvania.

Met a guy from there once in a Georgetown coffee shop. He pronounced the town with an even stress all the way through the word, almost like a phrase. He said it was a pretty place, but had no jobs.

From the book (although it might be The Further Meaning of Liff or somesuch) I can confirm Amersham is correct. It's the word meaning a tickling in the nose that foreshadows a sneeze - but only the foreshadowing, the sneeze may never come to pass. It's based on the Tube lines at Amersham station (Bucks) which tick and fizz and imply a train is imminent... yet it doesn't actually arrive.

Back on topic.
Chew Magna.
Yum yum.

Westward Ho! isn't a name of any great antiquity, but it does have an exclamation mark, and is therefore a notable direction to ladies engaged in the world's oldest profession.
