Hi Dave,
Bildeston had a flat roof if my memory serves me ok . I also worked at Pakenham. That was a bare building when we got there. I worked with Plessey from 1970 to about 1973 when the travelling got too much for me. If you were around about that time then indeed we might have been in the same place at the same time.
The more I think about those times, the more comes back to me. My mode of transport at the time was an Austin Cambridge followed by a Morris Oxford.I really racked up the miles in those two cars. Other names I remember from the Plessey team were Dave Orvis and Nadine Kemp. There was a coloured guy from the West Indies , a wireman, who always brought in his tape player and treated us to obscure ska !!
Mike.
