Lethbridge

place. Inconspicuous Canadian hamlet existing solely to maintain the country’s seventh longest trestle bridge. The bridge, made of the finest maple wood needs to be scraped weekly to prevent the accumulation of syrup which would attract rats and invite a catastrophic rail derailment. Lethbridge also is home to a junior hockey team which has seen the end of its glory days and a gravel-sorting industry which is second to none. With the construction of a bridge-scraping interpretive centre in the heart of the hamlet, and a rat-killers hall of fame in the spleen of the hamlet, Lethbridge is poised to finally spring into the nineteenth century.

What is that awful mapleish smell?

Lethbridge. The fearsome wind must be in the north-west.
