 Friends         | Ex Royal Air Force and very lowly civil servant for some time.  blitzkid1939: My beautiful mother (second from right) and her 4 sisters circa 1914 aged 10. Three of them migrated to Canada between 1927-29 and two came back to Scotland again. 6 months ago • Report 3 blitzkid1939: My 92 year-old brother Ronald Allan in his Gosport care home. He has dementia but is as happy as Larry. He doesn't know we siblings of his, nor (at times) his own children. This was taken last Christmas Day 2021. blitzkid1939: My second car in Germany circa 1961...an Opel Rekord. I was a little shit and often drove around standing with one foot on the accelerator and standing up through the sun-roof like a tank commander in WW2 with my free arm (the other was on the steering wheel) raised in salute. Terrible of me wasn't it? blitzkid1939: February 2018 in The Wndmill Farm venue in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, receiving my certificate of membership of the Institute of Advanced Motorists from ex world champion rally driver Paddy Hopkirk. blitzkid1939: Oh wouldn't it be nice and brave if my two main accusers of me being a fake had the courage of their supposed convictions and e-mailed the IAM to check to see whether I really am who I say I am. I mean all it would take is an email saying you knew me some years ago and you knew I was a member of the IAM but have lost contact and would it be possible to forward an e-mailed message to me.Then if you really were correct you could blow me out of the water couldn't you? But 'tis easier to make accusations than it is to have the courage to follow-up and prove them ain't it just? Look...I'll even put my "claimed " IAM membership number to make it easier for you...m00572393. There. Dare you test out your horrid lies about me? Of course you daren't . You have not durst verify a single claim. Chickens!!!  Waiting with baited anticipation. blitzkid1939: My wife (Jill) aged circa 4 resting on the base of the supporting post of the pub sign for The Blue Bell out side the pub of that name in Belchford, Lincolnshire, England in circa 1945. Ain't she just the cutest little bundle you've ever seen? blitzkid1939: My wife (Jill) and Sue Pollard (star of the long-running TV comedy "Hi-De-Hi" at the "Mucky Duck" today at Woolsthorpe by Belvoir Castle in Rutland, England. This beautiful complex is on Lock 16 of the Grantham to Nottingham Canal. Sue was just visiting for a meal and I shouted "Hi-De-Hi!" and she replied with the "Ho-De-Ho!" and asked if we wanted a pic taken with her. We sat out in glorious sun with our beautiful daughter and had a fabulous meal and a 3 hour natter. What in life could give more pleasure? blitzkid1939: Jim...(of whom I had charge for nearly 3 years!) our 3 Squadron mascot at RAF Geilenkirchen in Germany 1959-62. I took this picture to place on Jim's ID Security Pass (Form 1250) so that he could pass out and in of Geilenkirchen. He is sat (by my command!) just outside our service hangar. Jim slept always under my bed but only after a shower every day as he went each day across the runway to the north side of the camp "rabbiting" and a good roll in the cess pits where all of Geilenkirchen's sewage was piped. He is sat wearing Flying Officer Jewson's hat...and he had just arrived back -freshly stinking- from the cess pits across the runway. Jewiss had no sense of humour at all! blitzkid1939: My 75th birthday present from friends and relatives. A title of "Lord" and a square foot of land in Scotland as the usage of the "Lord" prefix is not allowed under this letter patent without ownership of land. Hahahaha Makes you laugh eh? My real name is Freddie but they had to use my birth certificate to register the title and land (as photocopies of owners' birth certificates are required by the Scottish Land Registry) and I was christened Peter Frederick at 3 months but was known as Freddie, after my would-be adoptive mother called me that from 10 months old. Hahahah if my mother had have relented and let me be adopted I would have become a real peer of the realm as Lord and Lady Braybrooke's two boys were killed in the Royal Navy during World War 2. Funny old world innit? blitzkid1939: That was me at RAF Locking in Somerset in 1962 where my older brother was stationed and his son is in my mother's arms at the christening. I was his (Phillip's) godfather. View all 8 posts blitzkid1939: Well unfortunately he was soon to fall into committing petty crimes and got a 1 year probationary period. He was accused of "aiding and abetting" but was only keeping any eye out for fear of being beaten up if he didn't.

I did say most of the people were gypsies so that might account for it or maybe she was disabled? We didn't know most of the guests. |
