This afternoon we stopped off for a couple of pints at a pub in Wallington, Surrey. My thoughts inevitably strayed to the tale of a young man who, whilst delivering crisps and lemonade in that same town, decided that a career as an actor would be much more satisfying and enjoyable. Unfortunately my other 'alf didn't share my fascination for the place and actually had the audacity to laugh at my suggestion that a blue plaque should be installed to commemorate the event...

There should so be a plaque! Don't suppose we know exactly where he delivered to? If not, a plaque in the town centre would do *g*

Yes, yes! A plaque! Definitely.

Isn't it fun to travel with a secret agenda? *g*

Actually, that's a good idea. Plaques have been put up for less important reasons!

Oh wow - I always imagined him in some cold, blow-y town up north when he had his revelation!

There should be a blue plaque - we laugh at your other 'alf! *g*

I can sympathise with J as Wallington is hardly the nicest of places! And you should have come round for a cuppa seeing as you were only down the road from me. Hope the rest of your travels take you to more exciting places than Wallington!!

hugs Lx

I'm surprised is was in the south, too - I've always read it as Warrington. *g*

'decided that a career as an actor would be much more satisfying and enjoyable' hooray for that decision! And what a fab actor he soon turned out to be, judging from the LC website.

Yeah, but you'll have to find the exact lay-by. I'm emailing today - would you like me to ask?!
