Many thankks Skippy, Cazza, Lones, Penny and Lady Di on these reworked and colourised images.  Like his future wife Catherine Mary Jones of Conwy the warmth of the colours by Skippy look fantastic.

You are perfectionists and I rise to that.

PS I have their wedding photo in 1922 should I post it???
PPS I have just posted him as a soldier by to compare his innocence of what was to come on The Somme.
kind regards Gareth
