Steve,

Yes I certainly can - Blunham 298 - a small village in Bedfordshire were I spent a lot of my fomative
years. That was the Rectory. Also Blunham 238 which was friends number and their garage business, in a nearby village of Tempsford. That is a village with a lot of history. The aerodrome was used by the Dambusters/for a time and also where they flew the Lysanders from with the SOE ops. Used to be a TV programme - Moonstrike based on Tempsford. Famous pub the Wheatsheaf - one of my locals - where many famous racing drivers used to meet. Hawthorn,Bueb,Archey Scott Brown, Ron Flockhart and many many more. Still there but A1 no longer runs past the pub.
Showing my age now.
Met up with old school pal recently in Los Angeles and he reminded me we had known each other for 61 years.
