In 1943, when sitting with his team of seven staff in Colchester, all of whom were all living off the widow’s pension of one of the group, Ken Adams startled the group by suggesting a CLC advance into London.
“Open a shop in London!” exclaimed Fred Whybrow.
“Open a shop in London?” echoed Dorrie Brooking (the supplier of the widow’s pension), “How?”
“It is impossible,” said another of the team, to which Ken Adams replied, “We are going to advance into the Impossible.”
