Hi Michelle

I knew both your parents quite well but they knew my brothers Pete and John better.

Dave was a big guy, looked like Brian Jones (google it) and Beebee, as earlier mentioned, knocked around with Barbara.

Am I right in thinking that Dave has a stepbrother called Mick? (we knew him as Mini). I met him last year at Hillsboro corner.

 

Give Mum and Dad my regards..

I was christened there in 1948 - I went to school with a girl who lived opposite the church - she was called Felicity Dawn Revill - we then went onto Granville College

 

i know this is an old post but dont suppose it matters. I knew Felicity. She lived next door to Mrs Smith. I lived across from Mrs Smith. Felicity was older than me. I think it was about 1964 or 65 when we went to live there. I had just started school. Fox Hill. Julie
