Hiya,
Lovely to see your posts.
My Grandfather was Maj C A Brown QM MBE,
And finished his career at Colchester.
When I came along in the 70s,
Grandad used to pop in to see his friend Bill Jollife, round at Butt rd? He certainly did the garrison alterations.
Bill used to look after me whilst Grandad gave driving lessons.
I remember sheets draped over various machines, he always said they were his daleks!
I had so much choice and was allowed occasionally to have a badge for myself.
In about 86, Bill tailored my first ever suit, for my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary at the Masonic hall, I have very fond memories of Bill,
thanks, this has made my day, Charles Brown
