So amongst others, there are now German people going about calling our River Stour the River Store. Well, that's just great. | |

At the Peterborough end, yes, but in Northamptonshire it's pronounced Nenn. So if you put your canoe in the river at Oundle Mill, turn right for the River Neene, left for the River Nenn. | | | |
