"Aylesham sunshine corner" a small and pretty grim coal mining village in Kent - also known as the Peoples Republic of Aylesham which has been fighting its own intifada against the 'establishment' since its birth in 1927 (when all the blacklisted miners from the General Strike ended up there). Joining the Corps gave me my sense of community and cameraderie back after Thatcher and the 'me generation' decimated this place in the '80's
