  i went to a couple of twickers in the early 60's----first with my dear old mum and we stayed in lodgings--a real dump that was. but she left me on wimbledon railway station to do trainspotting so i was a happy kid. (how blatantly stupid now i look back ) i suppose she thought the angels would look after me.

  the second i went camping in the tent city on site--with all my teenage mates. the highlight of it was getting to meet liquorice !

  Well we normally went to Perth in Scotland but now go to Glasgow because it is cheaper but I too made the trek down to Twickenham a few times...it is indeed a lovely stadium.

  Memories ......I used like watching the planes (Concorde was a so noisy they had to stop talking on the platform). There was always a pair of Kestrels nesting the old green corrugated stands.
