[edit] Antigua - Chief Towns

Hi James. Thanks for the reply on my talk page regarding the entry for Antigua. I have replied on that articles discussion page. Oh and if you add four tildes after your entry on talk pages then it will sign and date the entry on your behalf. In short though I agree that 'chief' towns is non-sensical and could do with being re-worked Adam777 17:43, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
