Many thanks for the info, Jock.
The bad news is that I had to go to Dorchester on Wednesday - which is Market Day. So I sailed off on the A35 - and ground to a halt 8 miles outside Dorchester. Before the entry to the County Show Ground.
God help anyone trying to get there over the weekend! I wish the Herdwicks well (I have a Herdwick wool tie) but I won't stir from my Dorset idyll over the weekend. I leave it to the Grockles - local term for tourists!! Joe
