Dave I'D JUST LIKE TO RE-LATE THIS STORY THAT TOMMY HILL TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE YESTERDAY. A FEW YEARS BACK,PETE DRUMMOND CONTACTED TOMMY HILL UP THERE IN TYNE AND WEAR. TOMMY SAID "POP UP AND WE CAN HAVE A GET TOGETHER. SO PETE NOT ONE TO MISS A FREE DRINK, JUMPED ON THE TRAIN UP TO TYNE AND WEAR. HE ARRIVED AT HIS HOUSE, BUT HIS WIFE SAID "HE'S DOWN THE ROAD THERE ON THE RIVER DOING A BIT OF FISHING, IT'S HIS NEW PASTIME NOW". SO PETE HURRIED DOWN TO THE RIVER TO FIND TOMMY ON THE SIDE CRYING. "WHATS THE MATTER TOM" TOMMY REPLIED "I'VE LOST ME MATE IN THE RIVER" YOU KNOW OLD DRUMMOND NOT ONE TO FLINCH A CHALLENGE PROMPTLY DIVED IN TO LOOK FOR HIM. FRANTICLY HE SWAM UP AND DOWN THE RIVER LOOKING FOR HIS MATE, CAUSE HE'D WON HIS LIFE SAVING BADGE AT GOLDINGS DIDN'T YOU KNOW? TWO HOURS LATER HE GAVE UP, TOTALLY EXHAUSTED. HE CLAMBERED UP THE BANK TO TOMMY "WELL TOM I CAN'T FIND YOUR MATE, WHERE WAS HE WHEN HE FELL IN" TOMMY SOMEWHAT BEMUSED REPLIED "IT JUST FELL OF ME BREAD. THE MORAL OF THIS STORY "DON'T OFFER FREE DRINKS TO DRUMMOND OR HIS MATE" COS HE CAN NEVER BE FOUND 23 September 2006 ANGELL WE ARE THE HERTFORDSHIRE 4th INFANTRY, WE FIGHT FOR BREAD AND WATER AND TO DATE OLD EMBOES DAUGHTER 21 September 2006 - LONDON brian perrier | b.perrier@ntlworld.com dave should that be 3-6-9 20 September 2006 - STEVENAGE ENGLAND Dave Blower 1962-65 HERE'S ONE FOR OLD TIME,S SAKE,A SONG THAT BILL ROE ASSURES ME THAT WAS SONG AT GOLDINGS IN HIS DAY 2 - 4 - 6 - 8 AND WE'RE ALL IN LINE, OUR PICKS AND SHOVELS THEY ALL KEEP IN TIME.

We were glad we had been able to chat to him on the day of the presentation of the seat. We had met him on other occasions too as he lived quite near our house. He was a fine gentleman and someone we shall always remember. It was really good that he was able to see the seat installed at Waterford before he died. When we went to church tonight we noticed some beautiful flowers had been placed in his memory on the plaque on the ground beside the seat. A lovely gesture. Good wishes, Heather 18 September 2006 - Waterford <<< 1 1018 1019 1020 1021 1022 1023 1024 1025 1026 1027 1028 1029 1030 1031 1032 1033 1034 1035 1036 1037 1038 1138 >>> You can search this guestbook by: Message : - Name : - All : Please type some text: - Guest book sponsored by PC Home Help (01922) 626 366 - http://www.pchomehelp.net -
