Default It was 38 years ago today...........

I was 4 or 5 and I was dumbfounded to learn that space flight wasn't like it
was in the cartoons... I kept asking about the guns they carried, and if
the had rockets to defend themselves against the bad men in outerspace.
The place was my parents house at Driglington in Yorkshire, England.

Not long after that we moved to America and I remember crying my eyes out
that two of my best friends woudn't be joining us... My Dad's car (a Ford
Anglia) and my super sized teddy bear, (the damned thing would have needed
an extra seat on the plane) and the airline was BOAC.
