[quote user="Mister Chops"]What sort of name is Lady Julian?  It''s like Mister Deborah or Sir Belinda.[/quote]Er, it is presumably in memory of Julian of Norwich, an anchoress at St Julian''s Church, so known to history now because her real name is long forgotten.

Mister Chops could be as genderly ambiguous a name as Lady Julian.Is it even a misspelling of Mister Cheops, in honour of the pharaoh of that name? That would make as much sense.

Yeah, i saw that new bridge next to wetherspoons the other day, but why is the other one closed?

What a handsome piece of engineering the new bridge is too. Something else for the city of Norwich to be proud of.

So that they can break the new one in......apparently.

[Brendo 0]

So are they gonna keep that one?

That would be just plain stupid if they closed a new one to open a new one. [:S]

It could also be a corruption of Mister Chips.Having said that I''ve met Chopsy and he doesn''t look anything like Peter O''Toole[:P]
