I really do not think this is a good idea, but hey, we can but try!!

You have 160 characters to say something interesting, which for one or two I can think of may be difficult!

Keep it clean guys!!

    I worked at J.W Bensons in the late 60s early 70s. I then got transferred to Garrards and was Ken Pollingtons stock keeper. Loved the job but only just seen this site. I left Garrards in 1974 to have my first child.My name was Sheila Caddock.

    A real pity I could not make this one in the end. Really nice to see the photographs. I'll try really hard to make the next. In the meantime I'd be happy to hear from old friends paul@pbarnett.co.uk

    butcher took - i loved my time at garrards, Alan Smith,Jane Rawlins, Linda, Tina Morton, Tracey Morton to name a few - still got my watch that i got at 18 - gave it to my son at 18 - what a place to
    get your first job. regards Paul

    Came across this site while researching,I am a retired goldsmith and although never employed by Garrard,I used to make items for Bill Summers back in the 1960+70s when Iain McCorquodale was his able
    assistant.
