>>But then I did go to the same primary school as you:-)<< Yes let's blame my mother...:-) However it was also pronouced like that at Colston's Girls' School, where one of the houses was called Cabo' (although I was in Drake!). The others were Chatterton and Trelawney. I guess they were the idea of the Merchant Venturers. So not just my mother then LOL! Polly
