I've lost hours this morning reading your thread and looking through the photos. Thank you for posting them. He looks a lot like me in the oldest photo! Would love to hear any school tales  I believe my Mum finally won him over by stalking him on the walk home from school and asking if he'd like to come over and listen to her Cliff Richard tape...They were both so cool x |
Can't help but still picture your dad as a little boy, didn't see any of the Central Prep lot after our last year apart from the few girls who went to the high school with me. Perhaps you have a grown up photo?
