How's your brother John going on these days?

He is great Stuart he lives in Penrith If I tell him you was asking about him who should I say you are

Just say " Stuart in the USA" he'll know.
What's he doing in Penrith?

It's Stu Edwards is'nt it, Hi, how are you doing, where in US are you what do you do over there, as for our John you know him he is doing very little still singing or trying, Our Robert rang me earlier and I told him someone called Stuart had commented and he thought maybe it was you.

Sadly James Brady died tragically in a fire in Durham St. with his children around 1975 his son then aged 4 was in my daughters class at St. Patricks.

My dads partner Kathy (Conway) is on the front row. Can't wait to show her.

I was interested to see Eileen Connor. Her younger sister Ann was my best friend at St. Pats. We must have started there after Summer 1957. There was another sister, was she Kathleen? So nice to see someone I can recognise from someone else's photo!! (Ann Connor is in one of the photos I posted of Walking Day).
