And just what does a tongue have to do with riding?

On second thoughts, don't answer that.

Still don't know what I want to do when I grow up...

     Another famous  person that lived in Chalfont  was John Laurie from Dads Army I  would  often see him wandering around the village,  Flora Robson  the old actress  also lived there,  Andy Gibb also met with some of the local kids on Gold hill common ,the Bee Gees parents lived in GX at that time

I used to go into the British Legion with my dad sometimes and John Laurie was there occasionally, some of the tales and jokes he used to tell kept us in stitches. He was'nt a bad snooker player either.


Condoms should be used on every conceivable occasion.

one of the Gallaghers lives (or lived) along Nightingales Lane. 

When I went to school in Little Chalfont, Ted Rogers (of 3-2-1 & Dusty Bin fame) used to get his morning paper from Martins the newsagents.

Noel Gallagher lives at The Shieling on Nightingales Lane. A couple of years ago he applied for planning permission to turn part of his land into a floodflit football pitch, but surprisingly this was turned down.

The Bee Gees family lived in Manor Road, off Windsor Road, GX.

The Welsh tenor, Ivor Emmanuel lived along the Lower Road, now retired to Portugal I believe.

  When Lulu married one of the Bee Gees  at the church in GX I think the whole Of  Chalfont turned out, there were hundreds of people there,

 I remember Ivor Emmanuel living there,   saw him once, in the  off licence at the George Inn with his wife
