| I know what you mean. All my photos were lost when my Mum died. I know she had them as I was looking at them before she passed away. I got the family albums but with lots of pictures missing for some reason including my Osnabruck pics with photos of my German girlfriend who I was very fond of. Never get them back now. | |

For some reason we didn't take many pics in the early '70's. No idea why. I have very few of my time in the 'green machine'. | |

| Same with me. I didn't even have a camera in those days. I only remember there ever being about half a dozen pictures taken of me in my whole career. Not like now when I am old and gnarly, everone has a camera! | |

| It's amazing when you think that not so many years ago you could travel from Aachen to Dortmund, via Route 1, and there would be at least two British Barracks in each major town along the way. | |

No apologies necessary. It's something many of us, me included have been through. My ex started that trick long before the marriage was over. | |
