Thank you Julie, I actually am part of the Exeter Memories group and have contributed on the Exeter Memories Website. It was from a conversation we were having on the Facebook site the other day, I'd remembered my mother saying that Archie our bus conductor had been awarded the Freedom of the City along with some other people for something they did in the war. Couldn't find anything on line though. Thanks any way.
