Just had a quick look Gadget - It's looking great.  I shall have to have a good read another time as I'm off to bed (Bob already gone!)

You must have worked really hard to achieve such a result - congratulations

How these pictures stir the memory. How nice it is to share them with their owners. Seeing them had me picking through the photo box again. Here are a few of my parents around 1933.
The first ones were taken at Folkstone, Mother's dress was dark green and cream, but take a look at Father's plus fours. Wow!
The other picture is Father being 'rather silly.' Rather silly, because Mother had the camera on him, and she never could refuse a good shot. Apart from 'East...' I don't know where that one is taken, it's a giggly squiggle.
