Introducing Myself
Hello, I'm Norman and my home is in Jakarta, Indonesia but presently I work in Bahrain. Originally, I came from what used to be Lancashire but is now Merseyside.
I am an Instrument Engineer working on an oil refinery.
My interest in the Accringtonweb is because I have an old friend named Les Costley with whom I worked in Hersham and Indonesia, many years ago. Les came from Accrington, and his brother John, at one time lived in Oswaldthwistle. Although both Les and his brother have now left the area. I would be very grateful if any kind person can provide me with any contact details.
I forgot to mention that it is almost 21 years since I got married in Indonesia and Les was my best man.
Thanking you in advance, and nice to be aboard.
ps Why am I called Junior Member, I am 60 years old?

Re: Introducing Myself
Thanks for the greeting.
I know lots of the expat community in Indonesia having lived and worked there for 20 years. Who was the lad who died, I might know him.

Re: Introducing Myself
I hope so too. Les is a very good friend of my wife and I and we would both like to know where he is and try to arrange a reunion.
