My great Uncle in Egypt during the war, is 98 now and still walking to the shops. Bike I think is a BSA M21 600 Sidevalve. He still carries shrapnel from Dunkirk.
My great grandmother in the 1920's I think, a keen golfer:
My great grandfather and his brothers, no idea who back left guy is:
They were all miners, my grandfather used to bare knuckle box in the boxing booths, my father in his youth saw him pick a guy up with one hand grasping the front of his jacket and banging his head of the rafters in the ceiling.

^^ Looks a bit 'Vital Spark'ish. 
I suppose they were pretty much built to a pattern?

Seems apt today, some more WW2 photo's of Trooper Jock MacTavish MM of the 23rd Hussars: Far left 1st pic and right in second.
My Dad was a armourer in the RAF during the 50's .............National Service. Pictured below on one of the planes...but what is the plane?
I always thought it was the Meteor but I've searched the net but cannot find any pictures showing those intakes.
