  Terry and Alec, these were the only other two picture`s I took. Sorry didn`t see you Alec. Phil Midget(?) from the Dover express was there though snapping away. Never saw anyone else.
  Tell them that I came, and no one answered.

  #19 Terry, are you talking about 11th. Nov.? It is a long way off but if I go I will certainly make myself known. I know you from photos and you have passed me at the bus stop at Templar St. when you have been walking your dog a couple of times.
  
  Colin, I am on a couple of your photos. In the top one I am stood behind the vicar, you can make out the crutch. In the bottom one I am standing next to the lady with the yellow top on the right of the photo.
  
  Talk about "ships that pass in the night".

  I think the only official event on the 11th Alec is the ceremony at the railway memorial at the cruise terminal.
  
  Here's the unveiling:-
  

  

  
  
  I've never managed to get to that but I will try this year. The service I was referring to was the one on Sunday the 14th. I shall be doing my bit for the Town Council.
  
  I shall look out for you at the bus stop! What it is to be famous, people often greet me by name in the town. My wife says "Who is that?" to which I reply "I haven't got a clue"
  
  
  Terry

  Terry, you didn`t recognise me today? That`s great, it`s all part of the forum spirit to try and keep a low profile at all times, the nearest most of us will ever get to being an MI5 agent. Nice picture above mate.
