Thats more a ravine surely?

A ravine is narrower than a canyon and is often the product of streamcutting erosion. Ravines are typically classified as larger in scale than gullies, although smaller than valleys. A ravine is generally a fluvial slope landform of relatively steep (cross-sectional) sides, on the order of twenty to seventy percent in gradient. Ravines may or may not have active streams flowing along the downslope channel which originally formed them; moreover, often they are characterised by intermittent streams, since their geographic scale may not be sufficiently large to support a perennial watercourse.

stream is a body of water with a current, confined within a bed and stream banks. Depending on its locale or certain characteristics, a stream may be referred to as a branch, brook, beck, burn, creek, crick, kill, lick, rill, river, syke, bayou, rivulet, streamage, wash, run or runnel.

Streams are important as conduits in the water cycle, instruments in groundwater recharge, and they serve as corridors for fish and wildlife migration. The biological habitat in the immediate vicinity of a stream is called a riparian zone. Given the status of the ongoing Holocene extinction, streams play an important corridor role in connecting fragmented habitats and thus in conserving biodiversity. The study of streams and waterways in general is known as surface hydrology and is a core element of environmental geography.[1]

Think it might be a different pun. Anyway, looks like Arse vs Spuds is dominating those nasty awful unlawful illegal web broadcasts. So it might have to be City radio. Any genuine smarties that rock up with aformentioned illegal broadcasts could you kindly volley me a pm over. Ta.
 

I recall a strongly worded post from the admin about threads going off topic, so to excuse the pic I include... does anyone have an online radio broadcast for those out of range of City?

Looks more like a Brook to me. A minor tributary.
