At Sylvia's

When we were younger we would regularly go as a family to my Aunty Sylvia's and my Dad did too. These are some from his more recent visits with Maureen and Alex too.

Mum and Dad

These are a couple of early photo's of the two of them together. The Rover looks impressive!

Very smart!

Here is a photo of my grandad looking very smart on my mum and dad's wedding day!

Christmas Dinner!

My grandad loved coming round to our house for Chrismas dinner and would always leave fully fed! After dinner in the afternoon he always used to fall asleep in the chair and then wake himself up with his almighty snoring!

Grandad and Bethan

Here are a couple of photos of my grandad with his youngest granddaughter Bethan. They formed a very strong relationship with each other after living together for the first few years of Bethan's life.

Cute

My dad and Auntie Sylvia look cute as youngsters.

Last holiday

I think this was our last holiday together as a family on the Norfolk Broads. My mum took ill again and although i didn't know what was happening we could sense that my Dad did.

The village stores

Here's some photo's of my Dad in action in the shop. These formed the basis of a promotional leaflet for Consort which was an early white label brand. The one outside the shop was him as Mr April in the 2013 Bygone Pitsford calender.

Mum and Dad Partying

In their early years together these are a few of my Mum and Dad out with friends enjoying themselves.

Drinking companions

My Dad likes a pint or two and a scotch. Here are a few photo's with some drinking buddies!

Dogs

My Dad had dogs all his life and were fantastic companions. We puppy walked for the Guide dags for many years and then with Tally had many puppies for them. Just a few of him and his dogs!
