Gone for a Burton comes to mind. Well, found your work this morning, and have watched five videos, all of them good. Peace be unto you.

Thanks Martin, we don't have time to do many so we try to make sure they have good content.

I learned a great deal from this. Really enjoyed it and recognised some of the facts from your book "From Here We Changed the World".

Thank you, much appreciated!

I suppose gate Burton is east Burton? They must only be 5miles apart or something

[@pilgrimsandprophets]

That seems logical! Though there is also another Burton near Lincoln.
