    No worries inh, it seems even you can make mistakes :jawdrop:

    You know the song working in a coalmine, I'm gonna change the lyrics now to fishing in a coalmine:)

    I would use pure acetone on a cotton bud to dissolve the glue, (not nail varnish remover)

    It does look very English to me, I'm getting River Wye vibes, Ross on Wye.

    I think you all are missing the top slash and it is Mautes, which is "A farming area comprising a small village and several hamlets, situated by the banks of the Roudeau river, some 12 miles (19 km) east of Aubusson, at the junction of the D39, D995 and the D25 roads." in France. Thus the river.

    There is also a place called Maule in France, the River Mauldre is nearby.

    The top slash could be an accent on the "E" :rolleyes:
