Spalding.

Sounds a bit like a livestock disease, doesn't it? Not promising.

I will have a couple of hours to kill near Spalding, on a probably-wet (given the weather this year) Tuesday lunchtime.

Does anyone have any suggestion? I was briefly excited by the Bulb Museum, but then it turned out it was about plants. And I don't really like museums on my own, or hacking on a strange horse whilst trying to make small talk with a random teenaged girl.

To my ear, "Spalding" is either a Marx Brothers reference or a child's toy, a particular brand of pink rubber ball (pronounced "spaldeen" in the streets of my youth). I don't know if that sounds any more promising, though.
