The London Borough of Brent was created on 1st April 1965, so in 1963 you were born in the County Borough of Willesden in Middlesex, as was I 13 years earlier. |

The Office for National Statistics lists Middlesex as an historic county in its Index of Place Names, so if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me. |

Middlesex has a history that spans well over a thousand years, to 704 AD - the Middlesex County Council was created in 1889 and abolished in 1965 - Parliament has confirmed, on numerous occasions, that the administrative County of Middlesex was abolished but not Middlesex. |

I'm certainly showing my age by saying that I remember my secondary school books (Copland Sec Mod, Wembley, Middlesex) having the Middlesex County Council logo. |

The historic and geographical county still exists. Only the Middlesex County Council was abolished in 1965. The Middlesex flag was flown over Downing Street on Middlesex Day. Wembley remains in Middlesex, as does Willesden and other historic boroughs. |

A Leicester band who were just getting big when I arrived at the University. Chappo would regularly come into the Student Union bar, have a couple of pints, then leave a tenner for us students to have a pint on him. Loved the band ever since |

5 months short of my 17th birthday, what a day that was. I had the commemorative tie, which I was told was made by a company owned by Dave Mackay. Wish I still had it, worth a pretty penny by now. |

I feel priviliged that I got to see Rodney and Stanley playing live. It does mean that I am now very old, but it was worth every minute. |
