Profile information
A resident of Newdigate from 1944 to 1960. Now enjoying a slightly warmer climate in Cairns, Australia. Lived a few hundred yards from Beam Brook and enjoyed thousands of hours in the wonderful English countryside - almost drowning in flooded streams, falling out of trees, getting chased by wild bulls, falling from billy carts and bikes onto gravel roads, riding wild boars etc. etc. ----- just an ordinary kid who somehow managed to reach adulthood with many memories of his early survival.

The Surrey Oaks, Newdigate
It is many years since I last visited The surrey Oaks, but it was always a favourite location for many reasons. The bar was regularly booming with laughter when I enjoyed the company of Frankie Howerd, (who only lived half a mile away), James Robertson Justice and on occasions Peter Sellers. I left Newdigate as a resident during 1960 but regularly returned at weekends when I was script writing for "Aunty Frankie". I guess that the old watering hole is just as it was then but the faces surrounding the bar have changed.
