    Talking about the gasworks, my grandad used to tell a story about guarding German POWs in Malta/North Africa.
    Anyway he gets talking to a group of them and they are asking each other where they where from - Grandad says a small village outside Liverpool you wouldnt know it, Garston and one of the Germans said "Ah the place with the gasworks, I worked on the design of them...!"
