I would like to add a reply to the above. I have only just spotted it even though it was posted 5 years ago. As far as  I know Edwin Fasham is still going strong. He gave a talk to our society maybe 3 years ago now. He still lives in the house that features in the picture in Shenley Fields. The subject of his talk was how he built his own narrowboat - mainly from cast aluminium with much of it being built just by himself.  A step up from a packing case canoe


Hi Dennis
Just to point out that our mate Phil Past away some months ago. So please don't think it rude if you do not get a response but thanks for your contribution and hope to hear more from you in the future

Hi I was at Kings Norton Primary and a member of St Nicolas Scouts.  in the Fifties, we used to do banger raids in the canal tunnels.  Contact me. I'm getting old
