Oh yes Loretta, I am very much a Black Country 'wench'. Grew up in Stourbridge and now live in Dudley. For anyone reading this that has no idea what I'm talking about....the area of the UK that I am from was known as the Black Country, from the 1800's, when it was a major coal mining area, so all the buildings were covered in, and the air was full of coal dust...which is why you get the 'Black' part of the name. No mining in this area any more, but still to this day, the legal survey you have to do when you buy a house is to make sure it is not on top of an old coal mine!
