Thank you Gwen for your rreply to my HOCKEY inquery...I am not familiar with Somerset can you please tell me where Montacute is located is it near Charlton Adam or Keinton Mandeville. Regards Kay P

Here's what I did: 1. Into a well known search engine I put in the two words <montacute somerset> 2. This yielded millions of hits but on the front page the 7th one was "Montacute Somerset village parish ...", and when I clicked on this I got the http://www.ukvillages.co.uk/village/Montacute-Somerset website 3. On the front page there is a small map with a <click here for a larger map> caption 4. This yielded a map detailing an area 4Km square with Montacute at the centre 5. Two clicks of the <zoom out> option produced a map covering an area 15Km square, and ... 6. One click on the <shift centre of map Northwards> option yielded a map with Montacute at the southern edge and Charlton Adam and Keinton Mandeville near the top (North) of the map. Thus after the initial typing of two words <montacute somerset>, and a total of 6 clicks on the mouse, I had the answer: Montacute is about 11Km (7 miles) SSW of Charlton Adam. The enquiry took considerably less time that it's taken to type this reply. Isn't the internet wonderful!
