No Place For The Weak Or Ailing (19 November 1976)
TRM/194
Three business premises now occupy the site in Bletchley’s Queensway of two former semi-detached houses, in one of which I lived for three happy years. Next door lived Mr Ray Holdom and family. From there he carried on a music business previously run by his father. In those days I used to do quite a ...
When The Killing Stopped (12 November 1976)
TRM/193
In two or three days’ time it will be Remembrance Sunday. Curiously enough, when that day comes round my thoughts turn not so much to that war of 30-odd years ago in which I was personally involved as to the war of 20-odd years before that – the war of 1914-1918. How can that be? I ...
Half An Egg Is Better Than One...! (15 November 1976)
TRM/192
How do you divide a raw egg into two equal parts, so that you have as much yolk and as much white in one half as you do in the other? No, I am not joking – at least, not all that much. You see, since I began living on my own I have had to ...

TRM/190
One April morning in 1909 Bletchley Railway Guard Jim Bates set forth on a routine trip that was to make him a national hero before the day was out. Jim was a middling-sized man, aged 45, and lived in St. Martin’s Street. He and his wife had several children and had just recently celebrated their silver ...
Scot Meat Products - A Trade Unionist Memoir by Reg Thomas

Maverick Who Became A Baronet (6 October 1976)
TRM/189
I wonder how many local people who saw the widely acclaimed thriller, Rogue Male, a week or two ago knew they were watching the 4th Leon baronet in action? He took the part of the rascally Blackshirt major, who keeps the hero – played by Peter O’Toole – trapped in a burrow for a day ...
