Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Here is a Pathe news of the photo above being taken. My father is at the left of the middle row looking at the picture. The tall guy next to him is the Queen's detective. The tall guy behind the Queen is princess Di's father. The film clip will only play on a PC and not a tablet. The photo is being taken at about 1 minute 58 seconds into clip.

Great photo ., yes i have just found the photo. I only found out about Nigella's mother's family owned J Lyons. when i was reading about her court case , i alway's thought it was the Salmon family.
My Grandad's name was Tom Barrett , and he worked there for 50 years i think and retired about 1965.
