For Margaret, Linda and June, I lived on the corner of Nelson St and Napier St through the early 50s and walked to St Annes via Wellington St. I used to call on an old chap on the corner of South St and Wellington, I called him owd Jack and visited him every day as did my sisters and many other kids, would be frowned on today, he was quite a character who made a mean brew. Looking back I,m guessing he would have been in his 70s. Just wondered if you ever met him.
