| thanks for that andsome so much goin on down your way! the story of Captain E.j. Smith, Statue placement, Capt of theTiitanic was interesting with arguments about where it should actually be place and some not even wanting it. Poor old guy – I wonder how many doff their cap to him now? And the story of the sculptor was interesting too. Also the story about the first toll motorway M6 toll and the controversy around that– never been on a UK toll rd but have been on a Thai one! And the new violets in bloom memorial garden opening soon – lovely story – did you get an invitation? |

| We have no mountains in around Chorley Dave, and I harbour a great resentment for those who choose to destroy our countryside footpaths by riding bicycles and motorcycles along them, destroying the wildflowers and disturbing the wildlife....don't get me started |

| There are three main towns in our area. Aldershot (Hampshire), Farnborough (Hampshire) and Camberley (Surrey). The borders of the towns are hard to distinguish as they tend to run into each other somewhat. News relevant to our area is therefore not in one place. Online news sites covering events that might affect us are: Aldershot - Farnborough - Camberley |

| It is Davo, even bigger than you might remember it but we don't live there. Basingstoke is about 15 miles down the M3 ..plus any roads getting to and from the motorway. |
