Crikey - thanks a lot for all that info

Not a lot of help though as I have a friend who lives within walking distance of Aylesbury town centre

I was hoping to combine seeing my friend more often with the combination of being able to walk home drunk and to stop over the night

I play guitar and sing a bit, mostly my own songs (as generally I find it easier to rememeber the words)

Many best wishes to MICK - I've never met him, but I sincerely hope he gets well - the world can be very unkind at times

Thanks Steve - I might come over to Bedford tomorrow
