Steve's Research

I visited my granda Gordon over the Christmas break. He was the ideal candidate to be my grandperson to refer to in the Microsoft project, mainly because he is the only grandparent I have left but also he a vast store of knowledge and enjoys a good blether so information was garenteed.
My granda talked with me in his house, the first instance was me asking his permission to include him in the project, 2 and a half hours later of talking and a couple of cups of tea later I was able to leave. Pretty much every detail was explained, right down to how he used the foil tops off milk bottles to fix a tank engine in the war and other events that happened in the army and his time spent in the REME (Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers) division.
Here's the man himself.
More to follow no doubt...even if the stories might have been heard before they're still brilliant
