Is that near Lickey End, MrsEggy? The address I have always fancied putting on an envelope is Ryme Intrinseca, which is just south of Yeovil.

I used to go to folk festivals at Skinners Bottom - lots of bottoms in England.

I read Penistone as penis tone ! My first thought was that the name should be changed, then I realised that it was said differently! It must be me.
