Harry Payne (Paine?) a regular at the Wellfield Hotel in the 1960's (Vault end) who I think was in his eighties when this was taken. His son and grandson were also customers. Apologies for the quality but this is a 3rd generation copy from a video. Harry was a genial and happy customer, always smart in appearance and kept himself to himself. No doubt he had a world of experience to call on, if only I'd had the time to chat to him, from my often hectic time behind the bar.
