“I posted a comment about how I was evacuated to Ystalyfera at the beginning of World War 11 (late 1930 ) and stayed with my aunt and uncle at Bryncelyn. Low and behold I have received a reply from the son of my long lost cousin, Conway Rees! They now live in Chicago USA and through the Francis Frith website we are now in contact after 60 years. I can't believe it and am eternally grateful for this opportunity”

“Hello everyone, Yesterday I received my second book on Andover. Today I received my book on Salisbury. Thank you for an excellent product and an excellent service! I will be ordering more books on the South of England in the near future. Take care, Chris”
“I have just viewed many beautiful online pictures of old Rochdale. My memories only go back to the 1960's when I started work there but my mother shared her memories of days back to the 1920's or so. What a town to be proud of in the old days and what proud people Rochdalians were. I wish the same could be said of the town nowadays. So sad what has happened. Thank you so much for the marvellous pictures that have both made me smile and brought a tear or two. God bless you”

“I ordered 2 framed prints of Cobham yesterday, and they have just arrived (1pm) today. I am delighted with a) the prompt turn around but more importantly b) the quality of the products - excellent. They are gifts for my son and his fiancée who have just bought a house in Cobham. I know they will be thrilled with them. Thank you”

“I came across your website quite by accident and wanted to contact you to thank you so much for such a wonderful site.
Having spent the best part of an hour viewing old photos of places I used to live, I cannot tell you what an invaluable tool you have created. Long may you continue to keep our beautiful country's history alive!
Thank you for allowing me to relive old memories, and to pass them on to my family, who are equally amazed and grateful”

“I have finally received my eagerly awaited copy of the book "I Remember When...". I was curious as to which story your company had published in the book. I was overwhelmed and astonished to see that you have published four of my stories, one of which is on Page 69. This entailed the story of the Majestic Cinema in Mitcham and my subsequent dream of going to the South Pacific. The pictures attached are in fact one of the islands I lived on for 14 years with my husband and two daughters - the youngest was born there and the eldest was 16 months when we arrived. We were there when Papua New Guinea became an Independent Nation and I have many experiences and memories of the island of New Britain - of course I have written these down - but are only for private publication. We left when my husband was murdered, but that is another story.
I continue to live in the Pacific and at the moment I am in Far North Queensland, Australia.
I will continue to write on your site on the different places I visited during my young years. I enjoy reading the book, it is very well presented, and learning of more experiences of the other writers in the book.
Thank you again for publishing my stories and I look forward to seeing another book published next year, whether it has any of my stories in it or not.
I would be grateful if you can forward my thanks to John M Buck”
