Pauline Matene Only a Coaster!

Miles Reay I started my musical career on the Coast doing “supper extras” for bands like that. I.e. providing music while the band had its supper

Roger Howell Damn, not an amp in sight!

Judi Trompetter Sid looks so much like Tony in this picture

Mary Moffitt Yes, same fresh face. Sid was good at so many things. Dad insisted that he was the only man you should get to build a good fireplace/chimney that would 'draw', and he was the only one he knew who could build a brick arch over the fireplace. So we had one of those, and he was right.
I wonder if Tony still has the amazing one-cylinder Bulldog tractor that had to be started with a blow-torch? You could hear it coming from miles away.

Don Hutton Rex Leitch had the first amp I ever experienced.
