Me too I was signing off aircraft at 20 years old. I know a lot Tradesmen who cannot tackle much else except their Trade , , bragging a bit, but I have Installed several Central Heating Systems ( Except Connect the Gas ) Rewired a few Houses and had them passed Built a Loft extension single handed ( Had a Plasterer skim over ) that`s one Trade I do take my hat off to. But there are I admit dangerous Bodgers around and jobs should only be done within your capabilities.

Marvellous intit what you can do if you don`t mind getting your hands mucky. I just did my Disc Brakes all round, anyone who can read " Haynes " and pick up a Screwdriver should have a go. I was talking to a Garage Mechanic once and he was so convincing with his speel I said you should have been a Solicitor !!! , He replied " Thats what I used to be " Same goes for Plumbers , had a Washer changed lately ?.

I was not reffering to ( Posh Schools ) we used to call you " Watter Rats " but such as good old Highbury in not such a salubrious area and next to a stinking Tannery, it didn`t do me much good though I failed my 11 plus .but Brother and Sister Passed for High Pavement and Mundella Cheers Danny 333 P.S. Sister Marian has just signed on as " Magdan " have you greeted her ?? hopefully she will be full of Mundella stuff from the 40`s 50`s !!

During the war as kids we could get in the Pictures with " Jam Jars " a 2 pound jar a Penny and a 1 pound 1/2 p. The Picture Houses were Called " The Ibe " ( The Highbury ) " The Delph " ( The Adelphi ) " The Fute " ( The Futurist ) The Palace and the Vernon were both " Flea Pits " and of course " The Lenos "

We went to the Airfield during the war and saw trainee Pilots doing circuits and bumps in Tiger Moths. http://www.merlinfly...ublication1.pdf In the R.A.F. I was stationed at Chivenor and one time Worked on a Spitfire as a Trainee Mechanic, what a great engine " The Merlin " http://www.flyingmac...k/SpitPL965.wmv ( Sorry missed an "l " in Hucknall---cannot edit ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Sunshine We had many a good night Jiving away at " The Boat " Inn Beeston in the 50`s , Featuring the above had a jar or two and never thought anything of driving in those days

I once caught quite a big Pike in the Leen using " State of the art equipment " ( A house brick ), I only stunned it and walking up past St Marys Church it just about jumped off my shoulder, I was with Brian Noy at the time and his mam cooked it and it tasted great !!!.

Spotted that - don`t believe we have any survivors for the period !!!!!

The Medical Centre for the armed forces was near the Canal Bridge and it`s there where I passed for the R.A.F in 1950. Our neighbour Mr Dennison worked at Gunn & Moors making Tennis Rackets ( or repairing them maybe )
