He had a very strange accent.Steerforthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07627936539372313828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32570460.post-70182608064924694672009-10-19T22:25:12.553+00:002009-10-19T22:25:12.553+00:00I spent a nice weekend in Rye in 1992.

Had my picture taken in front of the house that they used as Miss Mapp's House in the TV series Mapp and Lucia.<br /><br />Is "transatlantic" your nice way of saying American?
