Many thanks!!!
PS: I though you spoke English in England. Where the heck did our
forefathers come up with names like these? Isn't Looe a bathroom? :-)
Actually,we were in Wales 2 years ago (stragely, many Americans are
now anglophiles) so we're kinda used to thngs we can't pronounce, but
Goonhilly and Looe sound posititively Australian!
Do you live in the area?
