Bloody hell Jon I grew up just off Monce Close! And my mum was a teacher at RAF Scampton. Fun fact, it’s named after the French village of Monce’ on Belin, in which Welton is twinned with. Monce’ on Belin is situated just off the Le Mans race track and we spent many summers staying with our twining family there. Another fun fact, the former air base RAF Dunholme Lodge was briefly a race track in the late 1940s and early 1950s and was where Sterling Moss won one of his early victories!

The fish and chip restaurant on the pier is the largest chippy in the world. The Signal Box in Cleethorpes is the smallest pub in the world. It was originally a signal box for The Cleethorpes Light Railway, which still operates along the shore. On Freeman street market in Grimsby we have the oldest chippy in the world, 1883. It got its name from soldiers returning from India in the days of the Empire, bung was short for bungalow, which was an Indian name for a small single story house, long before it was used to describe a single storey house.

@@andrewhaines3259 I think my Dad was on 27 Squadron. I have one of their mug with Dumbo on it somewhere with my name on it. I still love to see Vulcans and sadly never got to see 558 fly after restoration, although we did see it at Bruntingthorpe and got a closer than normal visit when my Dad started talking about working on them and 558 as it was said to be the most radioactive kite that they had in the fleet. As he worked on it when it took over as Display Flight from XM624 if I remember rightly. He was then based at Waddington for the AEW Nimrod that got scraped, and as he didn't have anything to do he would help out on 558. They certainly made a hell of a noise when they opened them up and climbed. I remember seeing 558 doing just that at the Waddington Airshow in 86, setting of car alarms, on new fangled cars that had them back then. Did your Bother work on 558? There is another Vulcan that they are restoring, but it is just ground runs that they do with her.

I went with my ex-dickhead into Leeds and Lincoln, though I don't remember much about it apart from the very big Cathedrals. I also went to Grimsby, and he took me up one of those rare hills and showed me a neolithic site where there was spiral work carved into the stones.

I also booked a goth festival there some years ago which lost me a fortune as the venue closed before it happened. such is life!
