Thank you Anthony, sorry I do not have exact dates for the pictures. Matt has estimated the dates (fairly accurately I would say) and cropped the pictures for publication as I had just sent him raw scans which I have been promising to do for quite some time. (thanks Matt) I do have more to send as I sort through my boxes and will send same onto Matt. Happily I sent everything out to the Philippines when I moved here as I value my old memories too much to let them go.
