Confused yet? Well so was i.
Today myself and a friend decdied to go and visit Matlockes litte retreat. I wont bore you with the details but once we reached the summit of this small hill, we found one of those little telescope things although this one had an option for an audio commentary, needless to say we tried it.
What came out of the speaker made us both laugh to death almost it was something like the following;
"If you look to the hill oppersite, this is the home castle of one John Smedley. From this castle he runs his business empire."
Although i'm sure its not the actual Smedley (and its not, now i've checked, its infact this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Smedley_(industrialist)) it was still pretty damn funny.
If anybody lives in or near Matlock (its in Derbyshire, Midlands of England) then go and take a look, its a pretty hillarious discovery.
