The actor playing Robin was born in Nottingham. Just thought I'd mention it. So how come he's from Huntingdon? Where is Huntingdon? Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Hello everyone! Surely sending for the Bishop of Durham in the diocese of - what? Peterborough? Ely? is asking for trouble. They're not even in the right part of the kingdom - Peterborough and Ely are subject to Canterbury, Durham to York. |

Liking the new avatar-y thing, CB. Many thanks. You've a discerning eye. But just the one I’d be knackered too if I had to get up for Matins. Might just about make Vespers. I was teaching some brats about tesselations one day. (Not on their curriculum, naturally). There they were. messing about with triangles etc. Almost blew their minds when I showed them what Escher did with lizards etc. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

I had always thought of Friar Tuck as a Franciscan, but he seems to be a Dominican, I think. |
