Still looking for my best sailing buddy at Tal Handaq Jillian Walker. I believe her Dad was a Major. Does anyone know of her? I last saw her in Crediton, Devon at her wedding in September 1977. She was working as a nurse at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital.. I would love to get in touch with her. I'm now living in Dawlish, Devon.
Best wishes to all who have such happy memories of their time in Malta â˜ºï¸ |

Just noticed a programme for the Scottish Play (1968). Having nearly failed to learn it I can still remember my main speech (My former speeches have but hit your thoughts and on and on ad nauseam) - and it remains a favoutite play. No programme for "Dear Brutus" (1967) though (Played Coade, a 65 year old, at 14 - I now realise what I was doing wrong!)

Greetings all. Unfortunately, due to I'll health, I don't remember very much of our time in Malta. We lived in Sliema, went to Tigne Beach a lot, lived in the Tower Rd. flats for some time. My elder brother Roger, my younger sister Julie, and I all had very red hair and freckles. Father Del and Mother Terri (Hilda) went to the tennis club in Sliema and were brilliant dancers. I do vividly remember my pottery class with a teacher who wore cordoroy pants with a sailer flap instead of a fly, he made a beautiful model of Europa and the Bull which I tried very hard to mimic. He was the reason I got 'O' level Pottery.. I was 'in love'. I would love to hear from anyone who remembers me or my family. The single name I remember is Brian Ibbotson, I have a photo of him on Tigne beach. |

Came across this very interesting site whilst researching Robert Dickerson - and sorry to learn that he passed away recently. I have large picture of his, bought by my mother when we were living in Malta 1967-69. Mum was a very keen gardener and loved this vibrant depiction of bright red hibiscus - happy memories of our time on the island, also brought back by the many photos you have here. However, I'm just about to move house and sadly will not have space for it - if anyone is interested I'd be happy to share a photo and details of the auction of many treasured posessions which will be online early in the new year. Best wishes, Robert.
Admin reply - Thank you Robert, I will be in touch via email. (Martin Powell) |
