These are the last of Sooty's photos which Diane kindly sent through on her behalf. The first one showing Roger and John. John has now retired but Roger can still be found slaving away with the scissors!The next photo, Diane is pictured alongside Chandrah (don't know how to spell his name?) the last I heard he had gone back to Mauritius.
2nd pic,Chandra made a mean curry,does anyone remember Mary Jane his wife or at least I think they where married,she was american.She loved Frank Sinatra so we would play his tunes while cleaning the Laurel in the mornings,she could here the music because the Laurel was only 2 steps across the street.She past away in 79,she never got over loosing her son,he 21 when he died,Diane,Sooty and Eileen Rockefeller would remember her.
