And funnily enough, Peter's family weren't all that far from us, and we often shared journeys to CH, trunks and all. I think Peter had a younger brother, perhaps two or three years younger?

Re: A random science question...

Don`t worry - everyone had to stand for lunch and tea on Speech Day - unless one of the lucky few who managed to grab a seat. Surely, that's bad planning ?
