Update for 2023

Posted on 21st July, 2023

Well as you can see I have not written anything on here for quite a long time. Many things have happened in that time one of them being COVID and all the problems that brought with it. We did not have a Reunion for three years and when we did eventually get round to having one it was a  much  deminished  affair. Only eleven of us turned up and that included Joe Ellis's wife and Billy eathorns daughter.

One of the highlights of that meeting was Mike Bardell in his Chelsea pensioners Uniform.

For those of you who knew my wife Nancy I have to tell you that she passed away 1st May 2023. Its left a great hole in my life and I miss her very much. we were married for 55 years and I had known her for 56 years.

It was decided at the last reunion that we would not have any more formal reunions but some of us could make informal arrangemets and meet up at either Coventry or elswhere.

 

Well thats it for now. If you would like any more blogs from me you will have to write and tell me.
