I knew "uncle" Bob, he and my father Jack Barnes ran their window cleaning rounds together during my youth. Although we called him Uncle Bob we were not blood relatives. If we are talking about the same man he was married to "auntie" Rita whose daughter was Susan (like myself). My father told us that prior to window cleaning uncle bob worked down the pits and that he wrestled under the name of Robert retsinab. I have photos somewhere when we were on holiday and Susan an I are riding around on trikes outside a caravan. I grew up knowing this man he was part of our family life.
