Yes you are correct, Ernie does post on this site. Hopefully he will notice your request to be put in touch with Babs.

Thanks Eddie.

I have received a PM now and will be letting Babs know. Sadly, it may have arrived just in time.
I will keep you all posted.

Another success story.

Babs has asked me to pass on her thanks to all those who helped the reunion of two close friends from the 40's. That doesn't seem as long as over seventy years ago but it is exactly that.

Ruth has telephoned Babs They had a very long nostalgic conversation and Babs, of all people, has been reminded of many happy things from her youth that she had long forgotten. It has done her the world of good at a time when she was feeling down.

I also pass on my grateful thanks to the BB site and especially Glenys and Eddie who directed the information on to myself.

:D :D :D :D :D
