bts1970 Posted 28 December , 2011 Author Share Posted 28 December , 2011 Tom Confirms my immediate thoughts, he doesn`t fit with anyone on my list (Yet!), probably going to be another man without a direct link to the Village who`s photo ended up in archives. Many thanks Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
