I lived for a year at chelsea cloisters near kings road while doing crypto training for the Air Force. Then for four years in a small village between Banbury and Brackley. Do you know the area? I visit often.
Too much now seems like long ago for me Jeff! I know the area you mean and it's lovely but I don't know it well. I've lived in N.E. Scotland for the past 45 years. My Wife stayed for a while in Chelsea when she arrived in the UK (from S. Africa) You sure knew how to pick nice spots to live.
Oh! So that was you then - thought I recognised you! At that time my Wife had a flat on the Royal Mile (down the way from Tron Square) and I lived in the Uni residences at the Pollock Halls and we were both doing research in an MRC Unit in Buccleuch Place.
I was always at the Howard Hotel on Great Kings St. Just around the corner from "Marks and Sparks. Ain't it great to talk about something other than RCC?
Drinking a pint of Guinness and a Bitter Shandy for the lady......listening to Tony Blackburn on Radio One. I believe in 72 it was Cliff Richard singing "Congraulations"..............

While you were at the Howard Hotel, by 1972, we looked across to it from 50 yards away in our Georgian maindoor flat above the Unicorn antique shop.
