Sir John A, 401, 12, 7, 407, 427, 409, parking garage access road, garage, parking garage access road, 409, 427, 407, 7, 12, 401, Sir John A. Getting someone at Terminal 3 is a piece of cake even if a 575 km piece of cake. Thank God the Sox beat the Yankees and the Buffalo signal on 550 AM was clear until the New York City signal was clearer on 880.
What or who was a "bramp" anyway? The suit, the mailbox moneied and the tappers of ground and tree ought to witness Brampton from the 407 once in a life to see the deal. It doesn't matter if you have got a million tonnes of this or that - if it doesn't get packaged and shipped out it is just a pile. Brampton is the hive.

There are several original Bramptons and I am not certain which one spawned the original settlers of this one (though my money is on Cumbria). The Norfolk Brampton, however, may have its name inspired from the Old English:
"The original Celtic name for Brampton, if indeed a late Iron-Age settlement existed here, is unknown, so too is the name of the Roman settlement. The modern name dates back at least to the time of the Domesday Book of 1086, where the entry reads <i>Brantuna: William de Warenne; Ralph de Beaufour</i>. The name probably stems from the Old English <i>brom-tun</i>, a fairly common place-name meaning 'the farmstead where broom grows'."

Yes, I see as t'is certainly true that the gorse, broom and heather of the Brampton meadowy plain makes for some botanical eye-candy when viewed from the 407.
