It inspired me to read it and I'm enjoying it very much. I found it interesting to hear what she remembered of the American soldiers and I tried to imagine my father and father-in-law there in the audience. I love this book!

My Dad saw them when he went on a works outing when he worked at British Celanese at Spondon. The star of the show was Norman Wisdom , also the Crazy Gang, with Flanagan and Allen. I think the compere in those days(50's) was Tommy Trinder.Caz.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11206843820602358144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-9646097385014298382015-01-19T19:27:05.223+00:002015-01-19T19:27:05.223+00:00What fun to see the Tiller Girls! yes, I remember ...What fun to see the Tiller Girls! yes, I remember hearing of them, but never saw them before.
