| I remember staying in Herts once , Hatfield I recall with friends he worked at the local MH hospital and we were waiting for a flight to HK to spend a few years there - we had a great time with them and saw some sunshine too - some nice country pubs - they were going on hols and left us with their house until our departure, the kids had a lovely wooded glade with climbing gear and swinging ropes etc provided by the council - oh happy days! |

| I worked in Hatfield for the last 20 years or so. It's changed a lot since the Aircraft Factory closed. |

| Hatfield has become more of a commuter town as indeed has Hichin where I live.
The former De Havilland aircraft factory over the years produced almost all sorts over the years from the iconic Tiger Moth through the Mosquito and Comet to the BAE 146. |

| Ok we stayed on a rather dour housing estate were all the house were gravelstone coated and all looked grey? but our friends took us for a short drive outside of Hatfield itself and introduced us to some local country pubs which could have been anywhere in UK - real country pubs. He was working as a nursing officer at the main Pschiatric Hospital for that area? I had won a position as a Nurse Tutor in Hong Kong and we just had to wait for a few weeks to catch a flight and also were subjected to an introductory workshop in London were they delighted in enhancing the tough side of working in HK - we never discovered this side once there!! |

| morning all - sometimes I fear the worst other times I can believe in miracles - either way miracles will happen? I have also feared for Mart and now Alan - I suppose in the annals of recent history this will be classified as the "time of uncertainties"? |

| perhaps therein lies a clue? Mart and Malcolm were always good buddies imo - so maybe there lies a link with the disappearance of Mart and Malcolm at the same time - Watson my bag please - the devil is afoot!! |

| mart yes regularly chatted about cycling and gardening etc and caring for his sick wife - lives near Winchester. another option is that Mal just said to Mart I'm walking away from all of this and just let it coast?? |

| In the middle of a heatwave over here with temps in the 30's most days. All big gardening jobs on hold.
Like Davo says,it appears that the site has been left to meander on to wherever it goes.
I surmise that MM had some rather bad news healthwise and has decided to concentratehis life on dealing with it. I'm sure we all wish him all the best with coping. |
