Ex pats seek old friends

Dave Gibbons, who lives in Hawker, near Canberra, and Joe Harris, who lives near Adelaide, were at high school together in East Grinstead, but made contact with each other only recently.

Dave lived at Nutley in the 1930s and 40s, while Joe came from Colemans Hatch and later lived in Uckfield. Both men were born in 1926.

Dave contacted the Sussex Express via our website and said he and Joe were keen to hear from anyone who remembers them from their days in East Sussex.

Dave can be contacted at PO Box 3, Hawker, ACT 2614 Australia, and his e-mail address is
