Well, lets put it this way. When I go up to the bar and asked the barmaid
for a beer I say 'Pint of Speckled Hen, please'. Everyone knows which ale I
mean even though I dropped the 'Old'. Anyway, I thought this was about
Solar Panels.

Hi,
I think Ted has it absolutely right. On the other hand I also agree with
Adam's assessment of the advancing technology (Especially the beer analogy
-
Today's Lagers are complete rubbish, you cant beat an old
fashioned
bitter
or ale like 'Speckled Henn').
Going off the main topic here :-)
Without Googling or other search engine help, 'Old Speckled Hen'.
What was it originally? No prizes just curious to see if anybody else
knows.
