The vehicles do seem to date it around late 40`s early 50`s. Does the clothing back this up also?

Thanks Eric. I would like to visit and will copy you in. Chris

Hello Eric, Do you know where Pat is buried?

None of 54, my brother has one of us kids and Pat. I don`t talk to him, but will try to get my other brother to get hold of it. You went into the army straight from school as I remember. Were you not a drummer boy firstly? Great to hear from you, see what I can do. Chris.

Hello Eric, I shall do a search of old photos as there may be one of Pat with us as kids. Chris.

Hello Eric, Sorry for the delay in this reply. I knew Pat, we played together as kids. This has taken me back. Nice family. Chris.
