Hrmph, I certainly do remember that place! I'm looking at the pamphlet right now. It says, "The timeworn, beautifully located castle has a romantic air--it is somehow fitting that Cilgerran is forever associated with the abduction in 1109 of Nest, the Welsh 'Helen of Troy', by a besotted Owain, son of the prince of Powys, an act which set all Wales aflame. The castle as it now stands dates from a century later, when the powerful Norman baron William Marshal the younger set about rebuilding it following a troubled period of capture and recapture from the Welsh in this hotly disputed area."

Mav, I wish you'd tell about the meaning of "slighted", and how you came to know that.
