Re: Mementos from Aden

My dad (Bob Lambkin) was based in Aden from 1954 to 1963, my mother joined him in 1959 and they were married in Aden. My mother (Joyce Lambkin) was a keen golfer and I have found some silver spoons she received, inscribed with "LAGA" Little Aden Golf Association which were given out as monthly medals. My dad was a very keen rugby player and I have lots of photos, but no dates or names unfortunately.

Re: Mementos from Aden

I still have the Christmas tree we used in Aden. It's magnificent when put up, but it's a pain in the neck to put together as each branch is separate and each set of leaves on each branch are removable but most are loose so it's up the loft.

My parents Andrew Young and Alice Young (both aged 92 and still going strong) proudly display a silver Arab Dhow and a silver sword which were presented to them circa 1975. They also have a great painting of Ghadir bay

I also have a painting of Ghadir Beach. Lovely blue sky with the mosque in front of our old house. The mosque is no longer there now apparently. Those were the days!

I still have a BP bread knife and use on a weekly basis, must be really high quality as it's never been sharpened
Inherited the Kenwood Chef but let it go about 5 years ago.
