/Sorry, Chris, Confucius say ' It good idea to let head clear before
engaging mouse'
I was asking about Cameliard, wondering if the ship builders may have
borrowed the name from Legend. (I was given their history by list members,
which was great.) Cameliard was where Lady Gwenevere lived. King Arthur
built Camelot close by. Reference:
"The Story of King Arthur and His Knights" by Howard Pyle.
Happy reading, Chris, Tasmania
