Hello to all in Accy, Church, and Ossy.

Domiciled in Deepest Germany, Sachsen to be exact.

Been in Germany for 17 years almost, but brought-up in Church and around the Antley area of Accy.  Use to go to Accy Tech (Union Road, Ossy - long, long time ago), but left Accy in 1959 to start a world tour in the Navy.

Came back in '64, and worked in Clayton-le-Moors, until I skipped again in '69.  Lived all over the UK, Gibraltar, Spain, and Germany.

Still a Stanley fan, and a Church CC supporter.

Married (Accy lass), 2 grown-up sons, and 2 grandchildren (Scotland).

Unfortunately I am unlikely to come to live in Accy again.  It's not the Accy I left...just seems worse.  The only good thing about Accy is it's people.  They don't seem to have changed much, and are still the "salt of the earth".

Still working (the drinking man's curse), but hoping to retire in a couple of years.

Will be back in Accy for Xmas (at the outlaws).  [smiley=cheers.gif] [smiley=cheers.gif]
