Excellent photo Christine! I work at Bulldog Tools, saw your other great picture too. When did your Dad finish working there?

Tony, I think Dad left in 85 he died in 87 at 62yrs. His friend was Joe Porter, I don't know if anyone remembers him as well. When I was little I used to go and wait for my dad at the gates quite a lot (funny the things you remember)

I worked mostly in the woodshop in Henry Park St but now we all work on the main site. A lot of the lads will know your Dad and I will let them know about your pictures.
I can remember waiting for my Dad outside Trencherfield Mill, these things do stick in your mind don't they?
Take care Christine
