Hi Susan
Thank you for letting me know about Lassington, I'll have a look through the pages a little later.
I noticed on the GRO web site that they were now charging to park - though £2 all day isn't too bad I suppose. It's difficult for me to get there through the week so I have to go on a Saturday when they are open.
I always thought it was Over though I have heard people say Oover.
