Hester	Folk Pubs in England (69* d)	Jack & Hammer in "Long Piddleton", Northants	07 Apr 03
Speaking of pubs, I'm a fan of American author Martha Grimes' series of mystery novels named after British pubs. My British itinerary will take me through Northants, and I'm wondering if anyone could suggest a town that Grimes might have based the fictional "Long Piddleton" on, or a Northants pub similar to her "Jack & Hammer", where I could raise a half-pint of Old Peculiar in salute to Melrose Plant. Yes, indeed, I'm planning the weirdest Folksinger/Mystery Novel/Ancestor's Grave/Ancient Stone Circles/Robin Hood lore/Radiotelescope tour of Britain that you could ever imagine! Cheers, Hester
