Databox 2000

[Top-of-the-hill]

  Has anyone heard of Databox 2000? I have just been reading one of our old parish magazines and it was mentioned. It included some interviews with residents and presumably things going on in the village. Nearly 25 years on it could be interesting!

  Thank you, I didn't realise it was just a Kent thing, though KCC was mentioned. It doesn't seem to show up in the Kent Archives catalogue - perhaps we have to wait until the end of the century!
