I just heard of the passing of Jet Harris who was the oldest of the original Shadows (Hank Marvin, Bruce Welch and Tony Meehan). Terrence "Jet" Harris was born in Kingsbury, North London, on 6th July, 1939. The young Terence Harris was nicknamed "Jet" by his school friends because of his ability at being one of the fastest runners in the school. He left school at the age of fifteen and started work with his dad as an apprentice welder, making milk churns. Enjoy some of his music here. www.myspace.com/jetharrisAttachments:

Thanks Daphne and yes things are well with me. I had the most delightful thing happen two evenings ago. The phone rang and it was my dad's youngest brother, my Uncle Joe, on the other end. He and his wife Alice live in Alberta in a small place caleld Cowley. We had a lovely long chat ending in his asking me to write to him and send some pictures which I will gladly do, hopefully soon. He said he has a picture of my dad holding me when I was not quite two years old that he will be sending me a copy of. Life is definately good!
How are things at your end?
Love to all.
Sharon
