Unfortunately the link has expired so I can't confirm who I think it is.
A son of Harold Wilson was at Brighton College of Education in the late 1960's training to be a teacher during the time his Dad was PM. He wouldn't be the first teacher to drive trains to earn more money and maintain his sanity! |

Good luck to the guy, let's hope he carries on doing what he wants to... without the snouts of the media intruding. The first comment under the article wraps it up nicely.

Yes it was Giles, but I wouldn't have recognised him from the photo!
I remember the IRA kidnap threat! Thanks John for the link. A great story! Last edited by John H-T; 21st November 2006 at 14:55. |
