The second one ...the guy on the left is my Dad so it must have been well before June 1964 as that is when we left the hostel to go to QLD _________________ Carol Myers Altona Hostel Dec 1962 - June 1964 |

That's not Des Gillet in the middle of your dad and Dick Myers. As I said, I recognise him, and know he was a friend of my dad's too as he came to our unit on several occasions. I think he had some sort of job at the hostel. _________________ Resident of Altona Hostel, 1963-1965 |

I've told both Janet and Dianne about the site, Dianne registered I think, but don't know about Jan. Dianne is King now and Jan is Abram, so if you see either you'll know who they are. _________________ Resident of Altona Hostel, 1963-1965 |

Still wish I could remember that fella's name though. He certainly is familiar, but Mum doesn't know him. Don't you just hate that? _________________ Resident of Altona Hostel, 1963-1965 |

|

Does anyone know who it is on the Monkey bars on the extreme left, the older girl, its just that I had curly hair and was just about the only one on the whole hostel with curly hair (and red how good is that). I was always on the Monkey bars, they were my very favourite, I loved them, I am thinking it might be me and would love to know if it is _________________ If its to be its up to me |
