Hi Ken!
I remember Spud Murphy very well, as did Janet. He used to have the pair of us in stitches with some of the things he said. He was quite a comedian when he wanted to be - and tender hearted too, though he would never have admitted it.
I also remember the trips to Burtonwood for bowling. Picked up my first 7-10 split there, annoying the heck out of Flt Lt Symondson, who was on the team we were bowling against. I don't remember anyone staying behind though. Didn't we all go by RAF bus?
