    Mick and Anita, my mate and his wife??

    I know they did have a pub at one time before going up country but not sure if they are the same ones.

    If so then I last saw them in Southampton last June, sadly Anita passed away in November after a very short big C episaode.

    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Ok dear that is sad news John , as Anita was such a lovely Person got to know her very fast , and had a long talk with her and Mick!
    I have posted a Pic in the other Thread about the Flag and JB , that is Anita standing there at the Bar.
    So is that the same one you knew!?

    Keith has the Link now posted about a new start and i see another Person has taken over, also a Nick but certainly not the Nick i met there

    Those turbines being cut Keith I was looking for my father in law , but he worked for Parsons . The machine that cut them was transferred to Holland and was his last job before retiring to see it standing correctly.I will have to look at again when not busy just to make sure he’s not in the shots. I never noticed any mention of Grace Darling when they were showing film of her area. Cheers JS
