Out of the blue I've had an email from Larry, son of Electrical Shop foreman, Gordon Lawrence and fellow Drawing Office inhabitant.
Larry was at Arnolds for six years, staying right up until the doors closed in 1975.
Wonderful to hear from him as Bob Deahm and I tried very hard to track him down for the reunion in 2005 but without success.
His email - and a follow-up just today - advises that he is currently living in the USA, having retired a few years ago after a career as a draughtsman/cartographer with the New South Wales Public Service.
His dad passed away back in April 1999, seeing out his final years in retirement at Batemans Bay, NSW.
Larry will be back in Australia for a holiday next August and we are planning to have a few beers and a bit of reminiscing.
If anyone else is interested in joining us, I'll pop details up here closer to the date. It will be in Sydney.
