OOOOOOps,
Sorry Millymcb,
automatically presumed that the info on Man Utd came from Wendi due to the ref  'nothing to do with military records but...'
Many many thanks indeed for that info, I am now trying to find out a bit more about his taxi driving days.
George.

Hi there,
My original error of omitting an 'h' from his surname has misled you I am afraid. His surname was Greenhough, my apologies and thank you for your interest nevertheless.
George.

Hi there Millymcb,
We all have our crosses to bear ;D - fortunately I myself have absolutely no interest whatsoever in soccer!! I was forced to take part in it during my service career and once when on leave was taken by my father-in-law to be to watch a league game - the only one I have ever attended.
This letter no doubt will raise the hackles of many, especially with the connection of M.U.- tuff!!
Many thanks anyway,
George.
