Dull and Boring people may link up

Something completely irrelevant but as it's from the lighter side of the news, fun nonetheless...

The residents of Dull (Scotland, population a few dozen) are hoping to become a "sister community" to the town of Boring (Oregon US, population 12,000). Due to the size differences they can't officially twin, but they're hoping that the partnership agreement could have benefits to the communities.

Needless to say the punny nature of the two towns' names has ensured the proposed deal gets media coverage... :)
