Say hello to Peter Morrison,"my good friend" back up soon for a pint with Wullum in the Harbour Bar. Hope Wullum & Sharon's pub is doing well in Bervie.

My Mum is Gladys Ritchie, my nan was Mary Ritchie. I wandered if you had come across this branch of the Ritchies on your travels. Regards Sheena
Bryan McDonald Bsmcd3 @cs.com	17-11-2001 - 07:24 - from 172.136.44.131 At last a site worth seeing, I am the son of Mary Christie, We lived at 29 McGill, just across from Mary York. When I was a wee boy Mag Arnnot used to come across and give us Pomfract cakes,they were good and tough and lasted for ages. We used to play on the harbour cobble in the summer and the White wing, the fishing boats are all gone now I belive, but the names are still in my head, Whispering Hope, Margureta, Day Dawn, Reaper, Intrepid, and of special note was the lobster boat the Diablo (Devil) and Sams boat the By Dand. Fishing for poddlies and crabbies was great. Ah that was the days, and last but not least, have any of you on your travels ever seen a good Blakening sine you left Gourdon, I have travled many many miles and have never seen one.

Ron Lord rlorduk2@aol.com	26-10-2001 - 22:20 - from 195.93.50.184 Love your site which I found through Silver surfers - Gourdon seems a lovely place and I must put it on my "places to visit if I get time" list. Your watercolours have reproduced well - more please.
Elaine Bancroft elaine_1@yahoo.com	15-09-2001 - 00:04 - from 62.252.224.5 On behalf of my mother (Shirley (York) Bancroft) I am writing to say that I am coming up to visit old friends in Gourdon tomorrow (15th September). I was a frequent visitor to Gourdon throughout my childhood, visiting my Grandparents Mary and David York from McGill Terrace. My Grandfather played for the local football team with Roy Souter. I remember Roy when I was a child. I hope I see many old friends in the coming week. Looking forward to eating the fish tomorrow.

I will maybe go and have a pint in the Harbour Bar with Willum who i believe is now the landlord.Love the water colours aswell my mum and dad have 2 on the wall in their living room, both of them of boats leaving the harbour (ME 47 & ME 87) they are apparantly prints of original water colours.I will be checking back regulary now maybe to see if anyone remembers me from my childhood it would be interesting to see.
