Yes I know I said my last post was the last for this year… but I’m allowed to change my mind… or am I ? I recently played around fixing a few old photos for my Mom who turns 90 next year. The first photo is of her parents… my Grand Father died 40 years ago and he was one of those people who influenced my life… a carpenter of note who taught me all I know about furniture… My Grand Mother was the proverbial grand old Lady and died when she was 99. She came down to visit us in South Africa when she was 97 and had her first flight in an aeroplane when we flew her back to Bulawayo in Rhodesia… I cannot listen to “Silent Night” without thinking of her singing it in the Church…
and the second photo is of my Dad who went off to war at the age of 17, he joined the Pretoria Regiment and this photo is of him and my Mothers Brother and Burt Bodrington a friend of my Mothers… try guessing which one is my Dad… A, B, or C… go on give it a guess…
They all look to young to be tank drivers…
