MY family are from Warrington, I live in Hampshire but try to keep up to date with Warrington news via a very good friend and your newspaper.

My father is always chatting about the good old days so you can imagine the surprise when my youngest daughter who now lives in Warrington and buys and sends the copy of your paper sent him the VE day issue. Included in your paper was an article from Peter Birchall.

My dad (Bernard Entwistle) was thrilled as he lived next door but one to Peter in Fir Grove.

It was a lovely surprise!

May you please pass on our congratulations to Peter and thanks for the wander down memory lane.

We look forward to reading many more issues.
