I'm shocked that anybody can write any old crap on Wikipedia, without reference to anybody! I've just checked my village and deleted some libellous crap about local people. It was obviously written by an illiterate, and deranged, teenager for a laugh. Wikipedia should keep a tighter rein on that sort of stuff

PS If I want to be 'outed' I'll do it in my own time

Ashburton is a pleasant town in a nice spot.

I go fishing in the river for sea trout just up the road from there.

Why and how? Do you know what a wiki is?

It's supposed to be maintained by users or peers. You have just proven that by editing the content yourself.

I'm so proud of my town:

Elsewhere in Runcorn
The Old Town boasts somewhere in the region of 15 to 20 takeaways in a half mile radius but bizarrely there are no greengrocers.

And with his and 2 other retirements the team will probably need rebuilding over the next few years to get to that stength again.

All Blacks are looking good though.

You know if Dan Carter had been kicking in the league side New Zealand would have won. I thought the All Blacks would never be as formidable as they were in 1995 with Jonah Lomu but they're looking good. Dan Carter has all the flashy brilliance of previous fly halfs. Sorry for the hijack.
