An Irish lady named Bridie whose husband was English, they had a little boy about 4 and a baby. I think they went to Avondale Heights.

Thanks anyway.
Would you remember Anton the cook's last name? One day I'd like to thank him for all those cornflake boxes!

There was a little girl called Adele with fuzzy white hair, she had two older sisters, they were English. And a girl named Geraldine who used to play with Margaret McKeeman.

Sorry cannot help you there either, but I am 80 this year. That is my excuse and I am sticking to it.
It is a shame there are not more parents still around, but them's the breaks I guess.

Regards Olwen
