Sporting Heroes? John Blackwell - apparently he was a very good player in the Boston Sunday League! Seriously, I haven't really got a big sporting hero - although Daryl Clare was a god when he played for Boston, likewise Chris Sutton when he was at my other club Norwich City.

I remembered the radio and I opened it up and put in fresh batteries. I’m building a control line stunter and I have a little time between coats of paint. Well lately I’ve been interested in restoring old tube radios now that I’m retired. As time goes by it was put away and forgotten. I believe it was a required project for the electronics course. If I recall correctly, I built this radio in A&P school in Pittsburgh PA.
