This site has taken many hours of work, generating the pages and collecting together the material for use. However it has been very enjoyable and I have been much encouraged by the feedback I have had. It has also given me the opportunity to meet, either in person or through letter, phone or email, many people who have shared stories, momentos or photographs which have all helped to provide interest. I'd like to thank the following people who have aided me in some way with material or advice without which the site would be much poorer...
