Garboldisham or Garby






I have just received the monthly "Blue Book" and was again disappointed that the village has been renamed "Garby".



I am not normally aroused to make such public remonstrations but PLEASE can we revert to the traditional, and I am sure popular, traditional name of Garboldisham.



After all the County & District Councils, Transport Agency and indeed such regal online references as Wikipedia agree and use the formal term Garboldisham. See http://eng.wikipedia.com/wiki/garboldisham



Change is inevitable, as we have observed recently, and should be encouraged but let us retain some traditions such as our village name.
