28. Correct, ellundune. Westbury. But a yellow card for a technical foul.  Roll Eyes

As it's darn near 2359, those that have already had one guess can have another go. But please, just one further guess until I say otherwise.

I'm thinking up suitable punishments for those that transgress further. You have been warned.  Tongue Wink Grin

1.  Bristol Parkway.
Logged
William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: Stop, Look, Listen.
