Many thanks for the information.
I will follow up the mini car club and see if anyone knows him.
I'm afraid I live in Devon, so it will be a bit difficult to pop round to Conway Rd! So if anyone is going that way could you see if he lives where Dwyforite says?
I've spent the last 6 months rebuilding the Cooper S and recon I have another 4 months to go.
Richard Sutton bought the car on 1/8/1969 then sold it to Stella? Anne Morris of Conway Rd Llandudno in the early '70s. She then sold it to David Jones of Mill Drive Colwyn Bay on the 1/2/1977. The car then moved in 1980 to Rhosneigr.
Any way many thanks again for the leads.
Regards
Nigel

Many thanks to you all. Richard has been in touch!
He was the owner of the mini, which is great. He is sending me information regarding its history.
Again thank you.
Kind regards

Hi,

Would anyone have an image of The Lady Agnes 1896 I could use as part of the summer maritime exhibition at Llandudno Museum please?

Or know where there might be one?

Full credit will be given.

Thanks,

Debbie

Hi I am new.
I am wondering if anyone has some old photos of dyffryn road school pupils during the early 1940,s
My mum lived in kings road llandudno and she has no childhood photos her name is Laura Massey nee Thomas . I would be great full if anyone remembers her and has any photo,s as she now has dementia so doesn't remember what happened 5 mins ago but remembers her childhood clearly. I would really like to be able to show her some photos as I now she would enjoy a good chat about who she knew .
Any Info would be great.
Cheryl

Welcome Cheryl.

I am sorry to hear about your Mum.

This photo is not quite 1940 but Mum may recognise some of the boys who were born around that year.

 ???Hi Bri.
Tantilising. I know John Holmes, John Pritchard, and one of the Roberts brothers. The rest are also my generation and I recognise some faces and should know them but they have fallen through the holes in my brain! I don't know the strip either.

Can you help pleeeease?

Mike, I thought you may have got Archie Kipling and Colin Mullin?

The full team in no particular order is:

John Holmes, John Pritchard, Archie Kipling, Colin Mullin, P Owen, D Brookes, M Jones, J Stockton, E Hughes, J Pritchard and L Henson.

P.S. - That was your first post, Mike, for six months. Have you been poorly?

Hi Bri.

Missed Archie because I was looking for Tommy and Woggsy (Collin Mullen) because I would have been looking for Gary. Which dates me as one or two years older than most of those there. I wouldn't have recognised Les although the Henson twins were a regular part of our Kings Road/Dyffryn Road gang. John Holmes was frequently with us although Marie was nearer my age.

A few years ago when we were home on holiday I managed to get into the archives in the old Lloyd Street School. I had a look at the old school registers for my time in Dyffryn Road (and a spell in Lloyd Street). I was amazed and ashamed at how many names I had completely forgotten. I could have spent the whole holiday there! I did promise myself more research there sometime to build a social history of the West Shore Council Houses but so far it's gone the way of many similar promises.

Thanks for your concern but I have been peeking from time to time and generally, I'm fine and have been very busy with voluntary work campaigning for disability rights. I've seen some interesting topics and lovely photos but mainly they're outside my experience.

Mike.   $walesflag$

Does anyone remember Miss Williams who was an infant teacher at Ysgol Morfa Rhianedd in late 1960s or early 1970s? I have very fond memories of her.
