Was Ocean in the Manchester area? Or are there two?

I don't mind Gypsy - I wouldn't use it but it doesn't make me want to run away screaming. I knew a Chardonnay too - wonder if it's the same one.....

We've got a Ulysses at our nursery, so I guess I shouldn't be that surprised.
Jamiroquai though...
