Although we are not living abroad, some may consider Kent a foreign land, so I have taken the liberty of asking anyone out there if they remember my dad, Cyril Whittaker, who ran a barbers' shop in Burnley Road, Accrington between the years 1938-43, then again in 1948-1963 having served in the Welsh Guards in the interim period. Dad, now in his 81st year, was born in Hapton and now lives on the south east coast of Kent. It would be a nice surprise for him to hear from anyone who remembers him. Did he cut your hair, are you related, do you remember me, his daughter Sheila (we lived at 46 Avenue Parade)? Best wishes to Accy and all who live there, Sheila. E-mail: siddie1uk@yahoo.co.uk
