Geoff - two of the Romney huts were there when I arrived in 1957 (I think!) As a Navyworks civil engineem My Joe built the 3rd in '59 or '60.

David, I THINK the top storeys were added when the Dockyard School took over in the '30s (have only just read about it, but may be wrong!)

Yes Rita, I remember you talking about the story of Capt.Salter and the secretary at Verdala POW camp. Did you enjoy the book launch? Looked great!

Yes, I've alerted Sue Lewis to that post - she was in Birze at the same time!

The Salter Album is also related to the love story of Verdala between Mary Tabone and Captain Salter. I spoke about this during your re-union.
