When I was a child I lived in Cardinal Avenue number 36 and later 65.

That if the St Budeaux is in Plymouth

We lived in St Budeaux too
However, none of the DC can be named after that saint, St Budoc, bishop of Dol in Brittany!

Yes whitewave, that's it. We were in Navy married quarters, Talbot Gardens a few feet from the waters' edge. (1976/8).

Quick aside for anyone else who knows St Budeaux and likes cats. There is a lovely book set there called Casper the Commuting Cat by Sue Finden.
Sorry to hijack your thread downtoearth.

We moved there for a while from Cornwall. Must look up the cat book.

Monty - short for Montgomeryshire - not right for a girl really

Bryn - short for Brynmawr - again not right for a girl

Amazed not one named Rhossilli , those dunes on Worms Head are irresistible
