That's quite funny There are so many people that I remember from both locations that I haven't seen for ages. I bumped into Richard Oulton a few years ago and there were a few out for a get together around the same time Dave Skitt, David Panton, Mark Wetton to name a few but have lost touch with them all sadly.

Haven't seen Richard Oulton since he left, similar;y with Dave Panton since he set up his own property business, and Mark Wetton is now UK President at Alstom.

Bill published a book a couple of years ago about growing up during the war years.

Here you are. I'm sure he would sign it for you..

I bumped into Dave Denny in Wilko's today. Haven't seen him for years..

 

[Gramaisc]

I have the unpleasant duty to inform those who knew him that Ron Key has passed on.


Ron's funeral will be at Stafford Crematorium, at 1:30pm next Tuesday, the 22nd.

Well, there was barely standing room left. All the usual suspects were there. Ada will be moving to Lichfield to be nearer her daughter.

I doubt that there is any, but I will defer to current inmates for an up-to-date assessment.

The Silver Fox was at the Yard Sale. It's in his protectorate.....

That just reminded me of heavy fab and the plasma cutter, fantastic piece of kit!

His daughter once accused me of being her father.

Saw Johnny Mountford yesterday - said he'd seen John Chell.

Should have also mentioned that I bumped into Fred Adams a few times lately, but I think the trauma may have caused temporary amnesia...

Saw a draughtsman chappy in Lidl - still looks exactly the same, but a touch deaf, he said. Don't think that I ever knew any of his names, real or otherwise - but he did knock about with Captain Concrete.

Could be, I really don't know. I did have dealings with him back in pre-history, but names didn't seem to be that necessary to the interaction..

 

[gilbert grape]

I know what you mean Bill, Bob, John, Steve, Mick!!!! I have unnecessary interactions all the time..........

Lotto outside the Noah's Ark and Tommy Tannoy by the Market - but you probably heard that...

Just seen Taffy down the town with his Zimmer for the first time since his stroke - but as cheerful as ever....

More sad news I'm afraid - Billy Tawse passed away on Tuesday.
Top man Billy. Sad loss but thankfully did not suffer a long illness.
