All the best


Wonderful pics, George, thanks very much. I was living near Wrotham in Kent
and remember it just like in those photos.

I was in the RAF in Jan 1963 and on my way back to Marham on Sunday evening
I made my way very carefully up the A2 towards London. Near Dartford I drove through a
canyon, not much wider than a car and about 12 feet deep. A few miles later I was stopped
by an AA patrolman who asked where I'd come from. When I replied "Chatham" he
said "you're the first today".
