Hamilton township ? Isn't that north of Cobourg ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23948057.post-1163362503105744542006-11-12T15:15:00.000-05:002006-11-12T15:15:00.000-05:00Interesting choices on your slate - in this case with only a few<BR/>variations I would agree with you. What I do wholeheartedly agree with<BR/>pretty much is the "assault upon the order ... and changing of the<BR/>guard".<BR/><BR/>As usual interesting reading and food for thought.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
