ROD/VIC of 411 Ediths Hall, Salesbury, Nr Toronto, Canada, writes: "Bolton Old Pals is an excellent finder of lost friends, old loves -- it led to me finding both.

Her nephew had seen my Old Pals message in the BEN, and within the month she had contacted me by postcard. Before I had booked my ticket home, a letter then arrived containing photos of her beautiful home. We last saw each other in '57, the year I enlisted in the Horseguards nee 1st Royal Dragoons. Ten years later demob and back to Canada, where we emigrated in '54. Old Pals has found me the only friend who remembered me, someone I needed to have as a friend again. The cost of phone/stamps are nil compared to who I now have as my dearest friend and only date while in England. Thank you so much."
