Double Decker
See also: William Rushton, foil wrapper, sunshine corner → Related to: Texan bar
A Double Decker (often referred to as a 'DD') is an award-attracting confectionery bar, first constructed in 1976 by former-Keynsham-based chocolate moguls Cadburys. The geological nature of a Double Decker is composed of a generous layer of nougat resting over an underlying sub-strata of rice crispies. Some raisin measures occasionally occur. A fertile chocolate topsoil is always evident. A new sub-class of Double Decker was discovered in 2004, containing traces of nuts, but was widely-regarded by leading experts as being 'Snickers in Cadburys clothing'. The Double Decker is now an Amber Status endangered species.

Duke Of Monmouth (The)
See also: battle of the planets, heads will roll, gallant attempt → current status: resting
The Duke Of Monmouth was the landlord of the Lock Keeper pub (then known as 'The White Harte') in Keynsham in the mid 17th century. Bored with pulling pints for passing packhorse people, the Duke decided to raise an army and march on the mythical town of London. Due to a combination of bad luck and excess ale, the Rebel Army actually ended up in Westonzoyland, near Sedgemoor. Undeterred, The Duke led his men into battle under the cover of night, but an un-silenced mobile phone blew his cover and the Army were routed by the King's hired goons. Despite running away, the Duke was later captured and given a stern ticking-off by the brewery.
