Hi No71, sorry I have not replied before as my wife and I were visiting our son in Spain at the time of your posting and I didn't pick it up.

 

I didn't know Ralph Ferrett as I left Davys round about 1964, possibly before he came down into the pattern shop from the training school.

Regards sigma

Hi Finchy s,

 

Thanks for that! I'd seen the post regarding Jim and knew I knew the name... I can picture him now you mentioned the Square four.

 

Don't know what you are doing in Eire but hope you are well.

Hi finchy s,

 

Sorry i dont know your mate at Hillstown, even though i drive past that part of the world on my way to work.

 

On a different note, there is a chap called Hobson who writes features in Amateur Photographer magazine. Do you know if it is Davy Roll Hobbo? The face shown in the mag certainly resembles him.
