Old times
This is the first time I've logged on to the village and I must say it brought back so many warm memories.
Although I left Douglas many years ago I am still very much a 'Douglas Man' and wear the the tartan with great pride.
It would be great to hear from any of my old friends, if they are sober!
All the best from Buster Stratford

Buster, great to read your e-mail. we had a lot of fun in the good old days, but sadly they are gone. Things have all changed now some are not so good. You will be like me we only remember the good times. I retire in september, but you will have a while before you finish, well Buster I have to go now, talk to you some other time.

Good to hear from you Jimmy. I
am sorry to hear that things are not really as good now but perhaps the same could be said of everywhere. Yes, we did have great times back then, I bet you are like me and still feel the same age as we were then.
Hope you enjoy your retirement.
All the best

Buster
