We must have been in the same year at ArnoldBorn in Blackpool in 63, grew up on Collingwood Ave and then Cleveleys, Devonshire then Arnold schools, moved to Sheffield for Uni in 81, moved back after graduating in 84. Variously lived in Cleveleys & St Annes until 97 when I moved to the Valley Of The Sun for a year for work, moved back to Cleveleys in 98 then relocated to Fareham due to work in 2000, took the opportunity for a major lifestyle change in 04 and moved to Nobbertown, hoping to relocate to Bamber Bridge in the next few months and take early retirement before I hit the big six oh
