I remember him well because there was a bit of scandal about him.
A girl in her late teens, bank managers daughter, lived on Park Lane, had a relationship with him and ended up marrying him, - don't think her dad was well pleased  |
This guy had tight dark curly hair Margaret, I can still picture him putting bedding plants in the flower bed just as you went through the front gates
