Llecwedd, I vaguely remember him but I was very young. When I was a bit older (early 80s) there was a chap going round the pubs with a similar basket selling cockles, mussels, prawns etc.

Could it have been the same person?

I remember a "Paddy" - mid 70's early 80's. Slim build, brown hair, thin face with a boxers' nose. He'd often wear brown trousers with a red bomber jacket.

I think the jacket was from Horesh.  :laugh:

I'm not sure what became of him - maybe he went "back home".

I used to be an aquaintance of the man who owned the name of Brutus Jeans... Mr Ernie Sheldon.

Ernie could put his beer away, and he knew how to protect his brand..  A good guy.

I bet he (or his family) still own the rights to Brutus.

I'll never forget the 70's television advertisements:

Hi
Could someone please help me. I need a contact no or email for Chris Drayer as I wish to ask him if he would be willing to research the history of our house as we have recently moved to the area. Many Thanks and Best Wishes. Paul
