Afternoon one and all, well I didn't google, but I have been rifling through my old course notes - it's Kensal Green that was the first cemetery , I am ashamed to admit that I have no idea of the author though ;-))

Awdrey Chipping Norton is correct. We visited once, was more of an old curiosity shop than 'antiques'. Ronnie wasn't about, but we bought an autographed book for our son. Angela

While we are thinking about Angela's how about this one Alison Moyet grew up in this Essex town, which sounds like it gave its name to a famous brand of writing paper Dee x

Hello all You've been busy today!! We've done a 10 mile walk along the Tarka Trail - beautiful. Next clue: Ronnie Barker had an antique shop in this place after his retirement from tv. Angela
