Faces from the Past

Been getting lots of visitors lately. Summer holidays are in full swing. Not getting a lot of work done, too busy talking to people, but it's lotsa fun and you never know who's going to show up next.

The guy in the middle is Gil Cross whose father used to have the old 4 Square Grocery on Broadway, Reefton. He told me that i had the roof of my model the wrong colour - it should be blue not green. He would know, he painted it.

Funny what you remember about people. I remember Gil walking out of theCriterion Theatre after the screening of Mary Poppins and he was singing 'Just a Spoonful of Sugar'. sheesh!



And this is Suzanne McGeady, nee Mackay. People's appearances change over the years, but not their eyes, or voices. Delight to see them.
