Dear Richard,

You ask:

> How do you pronounce Comberton?

I pronounce it as Cumberland but
with "land" replaced by "ton"!

I have never heard the "Comb"
part pronounced "Comb" but I
have heard the "Com" part
pronounced as in dot-com.
The locals are not agreed!

Quite a number of sundials have
been made in the Comberton
Workshop including a rather
good analemmatic sundial in the
Market Square in Ely.

Alas, I have never been able
to persuade Quinten Hollick to
join the BSS :-(

Frank
