Story that was told to me as a youngster (General)
Hi M, thanks for that.
It's hidden away somewhat within the chain of links, for which I apologise, my post included a mention of Jim's story. I suggested he was an Abenhall man as that was the old name for his secondary school until it was renamed Dene Magna c1985, it's at Mitcheldean. I'm unsure if he was from Cinderford as in theory he would therefore have attended Double View Secondary school, Abenhall served the Ruardean,Drybrook and Mitcheldean area, although of course his BMDs could easily place him just up the road in Cinderford.
His full article can be found here

Hope this helps, J.
