The Comprehensive History Of Camberley

Featured Replies

Now, Camberley is quite an old place, but it hasn't been called

 

Camberley all the time.

 

 

 

It used to be called Cambridgetown. And they used to get mixed up

 

with the letters...between Cambridge or Cambridgetown. So letters that were to a person in Cambridgetown...used to go to a person in Cambridge. So they got a bit mixed up.So they thought they'd change... the name at the post office, because it was a post office...that had all the trouble of sorting the letters.

 

 

 

And they thought they'd leave the ''cam'' from Cambridgetown, and they--''ber'' is a river, and there are a lot of rivers around there. ''Camber.'' And then ''ley,'' because often

 

the towns near there ended with ''ley.'' Their names ended

 

with ''ley.''

 

 

 

 

 

So they called it

 

Cam-ber-ley. Camberley.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And that's the true story

 

of Camberley.

It was pretty good, havent read any of his other books though.Definetly a classic.

 

 

 

For the message of the tale, i feel that George Owells "Animal Farm" makes its point slightly clearer, but LOTF is less whimiscal(pretty obvious i know)

 

 

 

My view of the book may be lacking in some details becasue my copy has several pages missing adn i havent read a full copy in awhile.

 

 

 

PS-Want to tell me what the monster was, i think it was described in the mssing section.

 

 

 

Its message to me was that a a government cannot function very well if there are not overseing bodies to prevent abuse.George Bush?

 

 

 

Your opinions?

Pretty sure it was just the film. I read somehow that that speech might've in fact been ad-libbed.

Havent seen the film :-w

It was the film. We watched it in class and the whole class cracked up because of the way Piggy said it. Gotta hand it to him, he sold that story. Ah, it was great.
