merrydown   10 #614 Posted February 12, 2011 was it the haiges had a son called colin wi had a sister 2 years older? He was apprentice electrician then. We lived at 20 Cary Road (tophams).  Yes, that's right.  I remember the Tophams, they lived on the corner of Cary and Fitzhubert Rd.

To be honest, on thinking about it, I can't really remember whether there were three or four children that I used to babysit, but they were the only names that I could remember.
