That F. Knowles & Son of Wingham, Canterbury must be one hell of a fancier. His name is so very often in top 10 of so many nationals etc.

Always think of him when I see the Lorries with his name.

Don't suppose that are related... there again are they?

There was a good boxer back in the 60's - 70's called Freddie Knowles. At the time of Bave Banks of Fritz Ldoyd lodge fame, who great rivals.

[Guest LBuddle]
