There was a word in a discussion that I had never heard used earlier on today. I left a comment asking what it meant. The word was 'fetterings' and I hadn't a clue. I just looked it up and sure enough it was there and it fits perfectly into the context of the discussion. Now I have bookmarked the site you left here and will use it in future, thankyou.
