I was studying some electoral rolls and came across the following three families in neighbouring houses:

Cook...Burns...Fish

There were a lot of Cooks and only one Fish. Delightful!

Shona, I've got Codd ancestors from Lincolnshire!

At present I'm working hard on my Parrotts from Bucks., but they aren't so edible!
