I am sure that the first supermarket was Anthony Jackson's where the Chalfont Home Stores is now, am I right or wrong?

It's a free country, adopt whatever PC stance you want. Just don't tell me which stance I should take just because it clashes with your opinion.

Does anyone remember the travel shop at the bottom of Market Place opposite Barclays? I think it was run by a mother and son.

yes, it was at the bottom of Chiltern Hill, if I remember correctly. There was also a siren on top of a pole right on the corner of the street

I think Mr, Birch. the caretaker at the school was a volunteer. he lived around half way between the "Bakers Arms" and Beesons.
