I can distinctly remember visiting Marsdens with my gran, she used to buy loose butter and loose lard, it was cut from a large block. Te guy who worked there had been there years, I think his name was Geoffrey. Greens shoe shop, where I was measured and fitted for new school shoes, was run by Mrs Green, that was the shop next door (the other side of the jitty). Pure simple times, pure memories.

Can anybody help me? I am searching for my half brother, he was born in Rutland in September 1962, his name is Jonathan Duff, his mother is Carol Watson and his father is John (Jack) Edwin Duff. Any help would be great. Regards, John Duff
