Hahaha  :D  that's good.  Don't know how the name came about.  There's a town called Nobbuley Thick,

There's two villages here ones called "Burned" the other is called "Almost Burned" they're about 10mile apart .

The story goes that back in the day the lord in the area ordered the village burned for being short on it's taxes but they burnt the wrong village.
Then the people referred to say  (that burned village or that Almost Burned village)  and the names stuck  :nixweiss:

I live in Warwickshire so you were quite near me. In fact I’m in Stratford-upon-Avon today but unfortunately on business so the only sight seeing I’ve done is the railway station and McDonalds! ‘Tis a very pretty place.

I was hoping for a reference to MacBeth, but I see you posted McDonalds instead.  Thanks for the pix!

It was my first time there the wife wanted to see Shakespeare's birth place. That's what we headed for.

If I'm going to be over that way again I'll PM you we may be able to team up for a cuppa at Mac Beth Donalds   ;D
