And me,I hated him,I remember later on Susan and I going over the back beach,this was a while after we had moved out of the hostel,Susan lived in Braybrook and I lived in St Albans,and we both had boyfreinds on the hostel,so we went to the beach!!!!
Anyway who should come along with his mates on horses but George Banks,he must have been about 18 then,and he threatened to beat up the boys and #### me and Susan.anyway I told him my name and who my sister was and he left us alone,but you know I have never forgotten that and I don't think I ever will.

Hello! It is to be hoped that George Banks, whoever he is, doesn't get onto this site. Comments about him have not been very flattering.. Laughing

I would love him to come onto this site,really I would still like to tell him what I think of him,which isnt a whole lot!!! he is more than likely in prison though,but I suppose they have the internet in there too Shocked

I know I am awful...but never been one to hold my thoughts

I know this is an old topic,but Jimmy Minto was talking about Banks at the reunion,and he told me that he died in a car accident quite a while ago...shame that!!!!Apparently he did eventually marry someone from the local area,but it did,nt last too long..wonder why Evil or Very Mad
