Hi Pat,I can put everyone out of their misery about the Bakers driver and yes he did drive for Phillips many years later. The photo was taken in the 50’s just after he came out of his National Service. It’s my eldest brother Ennis Stratton.

Hi Tony sorry mate was only kidding ! :smiley: Hope your well mate. R Jimski

Thanks for that TIR, if you read my last post you,ll see that i guessed your brother,but for some stupid reason
i always thought that his first name began with an H. silly me.

I,ll let you off this time Jim. :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
