I need to know just what is the difference between the North Sea and the German Ocean? Living here in the USA over the years, I had thought it all was the North Sea. I was surprised to hear otherwise. I will appreciate any help. Thank you. Lila

Then, there was a good reason for changing it ;-) Simon www.suffolkchurches.co.uk - an alternative guide to the churches of Suffolk. ----- Original Message ----- From: Lila C.
