Thanks Viv. I lost my copy somewhere along the way. So great to see it again. I'm in the 3rd photo, first left on the back row. And in the middle of the last photo. Wonderful to be reminded of all my old classmates. Thanks again.

Re: Len Copsey Dearest Len, you were such a lovely man. A gentleman through and through. A friend and old neighbour. I feel so sad to hear this news. Gold bless you mate. My thoughts go to your family. Northfield

I would also like to remember all those who suffered that night. Really can't believe it's 37 years. I remember that whole day so clearly. I passed the rotunda just a few short minutes before the explosion. My thoughts are with those who lost loved ones, and the many that were left damaged by...

I was about 2 years, about 1951, when I was in isolation with Paratyphoid. I think I was in Little Bromwich. They took me off my parents outside the hospital. Although I was so young, I remember my mom peeking through the small door window, and then she was gone. I also remember waiting at the...

I remember Bob from the Katz. His girlfriend worked on the reception at the Rum. He was a former teacher, from Yorkshire I think. Mickey Walker on the door. Great entertainer! Former Redcaps. Beauty queens Pauline and Sonja. Unbelievable night when The Everlys played there. Black tie dos, with...

In my tree I have baptisms at St. John's and St. Martin's for one family, and then marriages from that family at St. Phillip's. Hope that helps.
