One of the first people to welcome me home when I was born in 1942 in Westport. Jack, Bill and Bob my loyal subjects and my (to me) cousins. Sons of Aunty Beryl and Uncle Bill our next door neighbours and then our friends for life. How I drove Diana and Bill mad many years later while they courted at our home in Lower Hutt, by constantly singing "Oh Diana"!
