Dear Reg, You may be surprised to hear from me, as it is 6 years since David passed away. I do look up the site occasionally to see if I might have known the name of anyone. Now I see that there is a different format – nice, but not as easy as the old method. I see John Nash had a mention – David always kept in touch with him .
I do still see members of HMSO at various things I still belong to, so we are ticking along. Of course, Sovereign House has been empty for about 20 years now – will they ever pass plans for the newer use of the site?! I trust you are keeping busy in your various pursuits in Norwich. I am still in Thorpe Hamlet.
Best wishes, Connie Roberts
Hello Connie, How good to hear from you. I have copied your note to John Nash and to John Eason: there are relatively few of us from the old HMSO Supplies days around who are contactable by email! I note your comment regarding the new format. We are currently ‘in transition’ and intend to iron out the creases in the near future. We have an occasional HMSOldies lunchtime at The Eagle pub in Newmarket Road – the next one is on Thursday 21 June. You are, of course, most welcome to attend, but I fear that there could well be no-one there that you know personally. If there is anyone you wonder about, let me know and I might be able to let you know how they are faring. A good time of year ahead – enjoy the Summer weather. Best wishes, Reg.
