There are quite a few pictures of Nelson scattered through the web pages, I remember him best as an athlete in 1960 which he still tries his hand at, how I wish I had been quicker with my camera at reunion 2006 !

Nelson now lives near Portsmouth and regularly finds pictures which he passes to me, he keeps in close touch with his pals and enjoys his golf.
