Seems like I need to start a couple of threads. I cannot claim to know a lot about Buck (Wing Commander Neville Buckle) but if I start off others will no doubt follow. We were living in Bath where I moved with Old Boot and got married to Gerry. Buck, of course, only drove a Lambda, a rather scruffy torpedo (?Red) and lived in a lovely cottage in Wiltshire (?) not too far away where we visited once or twice. It was alleged that he could fix anything on a Lambda with a file and a big copper hammer (know in our house for ever after as a "Buckle" as in "pass the Buckle please"). We moved up to Kendal in 1971 and I was going to go to Torino in Old Boot (then know as F*rting Annie but that is a different tale) but the head was cracked beyond Metalastic. Buck sent me up a spare head with which I successfully made the trip. Buck was a big man with balding white hair and a pukka handlebar moustache as befits a WWII pilot.
