Exactly, Alexandra! That's why I've asked about it. I've founded this
strange word in Manic Miner manual as the point, where the mine was
situated. I've asked about it, because, UMM, in fact is a Manic Miner
retold story and I tried to keep all the atmosphere of the MM. But all
the game takes place not in Surbiton mine, but near the Stonehenge.
That's the base difference from the original.

I didn't know, what meant Surbiton - that's why I've asked. I thought
that it's the name of the fantastic place.

Thanx a lot.
