[kettledrum]

for sarumite....I come from the West Midlands myself, so like you have no local knowledge. Do I take it you come from Salisbury or thereabouts? While I'm cofident about Bardsea, Penny Bridge is more of a suggestion, and in the absence of anything better.

[sarumite]

Yes, spot on kettledrum ............. you have obviously noticed the reference to the ancient roman name for Salisbury as part of my 'handle'.

[sarumite]

............. to obviate the risk of other residents of the Salisbury area querying my previous posting I should mention that the original Roman name for the City was Sorviodunum!
