Eating out in Ypres648 viewsMaureen Hayles, Godfrey Davies (just!), Noel Davies, Charles Davies, Ivan Cowan, Josephine Cowan, Betty Davies.
Please watch Godfrey's tribute to his father where towards the end he recalls the occasion in this photograph.
http://www.forevermissed.com/shadowsflee/#gallery%2Fvideos%2F283772
The Davies family had gone to Ypres to have a meal in celebration of Charles and Betty's wedding anniversary.
Quite seperately, Eric and Maureen Hayles had gone to Ypres because Scottish friends from our church in England, Ivan and Josephine Cowan, wanted to visit there.
Ypres is near the French border, nowehere near Ghent, so you can imagine how suprised both parties were to bump in to each other there.
They all had a meal together, and it was a memorable occasion, as Godfrey recounts in his tribute.

Godfrey's Reliant Robin....627 viewsFound this among dad's pictures. He obviously took it when he came to pick us up from church and was waiting around. He took a few pix of the roads and would have had no idea that was Godfrey's car parked there... not until I told him today, nearly 40 years later!!
Eeeek! For anyone who hasn't found out yet, 40 years is nothing... it flashes by.

The Cowans and the Davies's621 viewsA visit to Ypres. Mr and Mrs Cowan from Hayes Town Chapel were staying with us. Mum and Dad took them on a visit to Ypres. Betty and Charles Davies are there too, along with their sons Noel and Joseph. Dad can't remember if you all met up in Ypres or travelled together. Either way, he didn't have room in our car for his sons, and it was as a result of that he decided to buy the Volkwagen minibus you see in some of our other pictures. It was so if friends came over from England, we could all go out together.
