This is a request picture, the request for it coming all the way from 32 Dingwall Road, East Croydon, Surrey, England. And it came from Miss Carole Berg, an ex-Takakaian. Delighted to hear from you Carole and that you like receiving "Photo News". And here is that picture, your brother, Royd Cumming, sister-in-law, Averill, and their children Karyn and Andrew. The pic was taken in their new house at Wakatu.

Not that long ago we published, for the family of Mr and Mrs Rod McRae, living in Australia, a picture of the Nelson family. Recently we received this pic of John McRae (back). Christine and Bert Librizzi (formerly Christine McRae) and their daughter, Sonya, all of Geraldton. Nice to hear from you, folks.

A couple of very familiar faces in this pic. Two yachtie types, John Richards and John McConchie (left and second right), with their hostess and host, Gillian and Adrian Douglas, of Brisbane, Queensland. The two Johns stayed with the Douglas family for a few days during a six-months' holiday in Australia. Thanks for the photo, Mrs Douglas.
