My nephew, Tom Fairweather, asked me a few days back if I had any pictures of my grandfather Allen. I said I hadn't, but, having gone right through the big box of photos, I find I have this.



That's my mother on the far left and my grandmother in the middle. I'm guessing this was taken in the mid to late 30s- before the outbreak of War, at any rate- and that the photographer was my uncle Dick.

Tony - you'll love this - A book published by Stafford Allen & Sons Ltd. called "The Romance of Empire Drugs". You can download it from this link in various formats: http://www.archive.org/details/romanceofempired00stafuoft

I think published in 1933
