That's it for today, folks, I'll have to think up some more stores and
settlement events for later...BTW, you'll notice that this settlement is
in the same style as the bog-standard one from the RP book. If you're
very clever you might want to convert it to Phantom's RSK, or...

Enough of my babbling!

Later,

Peredur.
