Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

It's the Bristol/Somerset bit isn't it that's the problem, as there is no historic entity ever, that lumped that bit in with the stuff further up?

Your current area's West Mercia (and/or indeed Hwicce), but you're taking on a chunk of Wessex.

It'll have to be South West Midlands and Somerset, then ;)

The police farce doesn't, but the historic kingdom would have.

I think Flanker got it it post 2. I might even go as far as "Zyderland".
