Week 08 – 20th to 26th February 1984

 

(A235) John Lauder at  Folidays the Chemist in Silver St

 I have just been spending my lunchtime reminiscing over my time in Trowbridge!  However I think number A235 (Week 8)  is actually JOHN LAUDER not David Landau.  [Virginia Power]

One of my former employees has sent me a link to some archive pictures which have come up on Facebook. I would like to correct some information on one of them.  The picture in question is number A235, on week 8 of 1984 (20-26 February). This is a picture of me in Folidays Chemist in Stallard Street. My name is John Lauder and I’m the one in the white coat.  Keep up the good work!  John Lauder (age 69 and now thankfully retired) [JOHN LAUDER ]
