Does anybody remember Ian and Brian Spencer? I think they lived on the east side of 2nd Avenue.
I remember Brian breaking a leg in a car accident when on holiday over Xmas. He had to stay (Natal?) in hospital whilest his family traveled on.

Yes son, that must be the kids of Mike Spencer the golfer

Mike worked with me on 1 Plnt later he was Foreman 2 Plant Electric.
Mike had told me the story of an accident, quite frightening.

Mike is not on the Board

I'm not sure, but he might have been in my class?!
The Spencers? Where are they now. Howcome you knew them Mike. They must've been at least 5 years older than you.
