Founded by returning POWs at the end of the second world war, it does a great job keeping middle-aged men (and younger ones) off the streets and helps give an afternoon's welcome peace&nbsp;&amp; quiet to several long-suffering wives &amp; girlfriends. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Please take a look at my rockumentary of the weekend and be as generous as you can.&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLc2j5XCFbQ</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">I am also raising funds for the jimmy Mizen Foundation (via <a href="http://www.uk.virginmoneygiving.com/iangreensmith">www.uk.virginmoneygiving.com/iangreensmith</a>)</span></p>
