I can honestly say I've never come across that definition before! The day has not been wasted (though I may be, later)!
I recently saw the largest bridge in Europe - The Vasco de Gama bridge in Lisbon - 8 miles long. (Canary Dave - I think the title was actually tuppence but will check)
O.K. Dave thanks for the clarification, probably spelt by Dick Van Dyke!. Anyway back to the thread and The Bridge was another wonderful Scandinavian subtitled show from BBC 4 with A female copy from Sweden and a bloke form Denmark (not Hamlet)
