Thanks for details. Seems a complicated route fussing around the Med and beyond, but if that's what the man did - OK

Re. Clyffe Pypard

I remember it well. When I joined 99 Sqn at Lyneham in 1959 the mess accommodation was full and until a mess room could be found I had to stay in the Clyffe Pypard transit accommodation.

The "Goddard Arms" at Clyffe Pypard was nearby and I took this photo of the pub in summer of 1959. I see the sign on the pub says "Northgate Beers", doesn't ring a bell with me!
