Very interesting Ian..

Your late mum & dad would be so proud of their boy from "Charlton "

You would shudder at errors a lot of journalists make on Australian TV.

Simple words like "dones" instead of "did"

"Was" instead of were..!!

Me and Fred...instead of Fred & l ..

I shudder ....so l can only imagine how it would make you feel..

Cheers to you and Rosemary..

It still drives me nuts when I hear/see a journalist say "S/he REFUTED the allegations (or whatever). They should be saying rejected/dismissed because refute means "proven wrong".

Annoys me anyway when journalists say she/ he instead of using a name ..also drop their "g's"..

Too much time on my hands to notice 😪 😔

Enjoyed the article re Ron Winsall, Graeme Crossley and yourself off to Jamboree with Goods Shed at the Rail Station in the background. Played football with Ron in the 1966 premiership year.

Enjoying all memories of past life in Charlton

Pleased that you enjoyed the item, Peter. Ron Winsall was my best man when I married in Bendigo in 1966. I am still in touch with him.
