Hi Irene. Pat was a friend at school. It's lovely to see a photo of Pat and Colin after all this time, although I didn't know Colin very well.

Hello, Ruth.....in case you didn't know, Pat sadly died many years ago at the young age of 44. The little boy sitting on my knee on the photo of Ince Park swings is her son.....he is 47 now!

Hello Irene - I did know about Pat through Philip. It was a shock and so sad.

Hi again Irene, that is certainly the Colin I remember.
