Marilyn,

HMS Churchill.......they usually have a re-union in around September.....
if I remember correctly it is being held in Chester this year.
Might be worth giving your dad a real treat and taking him along if he can manage ok

Cath,

Saw a little bit on the TV on your 'Torry Canyon' Oil Lake.

Hope the new Bacterialogical method helps clean up the mess.

Stevey....he's asked me to take him on holiday yesterday !!!!!!!! .......the furtherest I'll take him is to the doctors !!

Not that I am mean or anything but he's so deaf and his wife shouts at him sooooo loudly that it can be an embarrassment in public.

Bless him ....but No darling daddy is safer where he is or at my house for dinner.

I do know that he had two comrades that served with him on HMS Churchill that he kept in contact with , but sadly no longer with us.

Stephen that oil filled quarry is disgusting. I do hope they can sort it out, it smells terrible and is hazardous to seabirds and wildlife in the area. Its literally a stones throw from one of the nicest local beaches and we sometimes walk the dog there.
OH's cousin who died on the Hood was William Albert Pike, a musician in the Royal Marines band.

(((((hugs))))) for Pauline <3

Evening everyone
Mo Thanks for the lovely photo of your new Great Grand daughter, Gracie-Mai, is a lovely name too.
Sally, Cath and Pat if you send me a PM I will send you some of the things I have been forwarding, never too much just a few things that either tickle me or are nice to share.

I had a nice surprise when I checked my e-mails earlier as I have won second prize in a survey competition from Boots, not a lot but enough to treat myself.

HMS Hood, my husband's Great Uncle died onboard. He was Leonard Frederick George Sheppard. He should have got off when they were last ashore, but was unfortunately very ill in the sick bay and the turn around was too quick to get him off so he had to stay and was unfortunately killed. He was married to Hubby's grandmothers sister and died before he was born, but I have been in contact with his grand daughter, in connection wit the family history.

Hubby's car has to be towed away tomorrow as the radiator hose fitting has split, needs to go to the garage, so I have the joy of arranging a breakdown pick up tomorrow.

See you later

Linda :-) <3
