Looking for Judy Mitchell, Laboratory, Didcot Plant

Hi,

I would like to know if my former great love Judy Mitchell is still alive and happy. She used to work at Job's Didcot. I was a young and foolish churn driver for Humphries Bros Wantage. She was employed in the laboratory.

Being young and inexperienced in romance I fell hook line and sinker. I have been happily married for over 30 years and have no wish to rekindle old flames but how this old man loved her when he was a young man!

I am now a renal patient on daily dialysis (living on borrowed time) The past was lovely.

Hi Keith,

Thank you for your heartwarming message and sorry to hear about your health problems. The word is out now so if anyone knows anything about Judy I'm sure we will get to hear about it and let you know. Job's was responsible for many romances with some lasting a lot longer than others! As you say Keith - the past was lovely!



Looking for Keith Blackmore & Richard (Chalky) White
Roundsmen, Sunbury Branch

Back in the late fifties & early sixties I used to be a milk boy helper who worked with a Job's salesman based at Sunbury depot called Keith Blackmore who was on Round 8.

Do you have any information about him?

I also went to school with Richard (Chalky)White who also worked at the Sunbury depot.

Regards,

Alan Aldridge

Thanks for your message Alan. If anyone knows of Keith's whereabouts please let us know and we will pass the information on to Alan.

Does anyone remember Bob Hempstead?

I have been in contact with my distant relative (Anne Watson) in Tweed Heads, New South Wales, Australia, and she would like to place a notice on your website to see if anyone remembers her father. His name was Wilfred Robert Hempstead, generally know as Bob.   He began work for Jobs in June 1936 delivering in Feltham, initially by horse and cart, and later by hand-held cart.   After the war he returned to the job, probably at the Teddington branch as he was living there then.   If anyone can remember him they may be able to fill in more details, and his daughter would be delighted.  

With many thanks.
Laurie
