1. Meeting Maurice in Stockton Grammar School Uniform at the corner of Bishopton Lane and the High Street, Stockton whilst with his big sister (my Mum) c. 1950/51 - yikes! I would be 4 or 5 at the time.
2. A happy visit to Manchester in the mid 1950s when my Dad's Aunt Ida and Uncle Bob were also staying at St Andrew's Rectory. I can distinctly remember meeting Maurice and Nora at Exchange Station with Dad and Uncle Bob. The stay was a good base for one or more trips to Blackpool, the in holiday destination before cheap flights to the Med.
3. Fast forward to 1980 and a kind B&B put up in Northants as Sue and I plus two little girls were heading for the Guernsey ferry. I recall a lovely evening with the girls fascinated by one or more gerbils.
Very happy memories of someone always smiling, interesting and so alive.
