Firstly some feedback following last week's football special.

There's been lots of feedback this week re recent TRM snaps. Yvonne Evans emailed saying: "Dear Jeff, very pleased to see that your column is continuing in the Western Telegraph with lots of interesting information. I was particularly interested in the picture of the Milford Docks area last week, but not because of the trawlers, but of the view of the cottages of Marine Gardens on the left side of the main track. My parents-in-law, Harry and Lil Evans, had rooms in one of the cottages soon after they moved to Milford Haven and then subsequently moved to Vicary Crescent when their houses w...

This week's feedback commences with an email from Christine Hesslegrave, who's been reflecting on the content of recent TRMs. "Hi Jeff... it must be satisfying to write your column each week, knowing there'll be hundreds of people out there saying: "I wonder what he'll have for us this time."

"Hi Jeff...I have read your article on Castle Hall in the Western Telegraph. "My great-grandfather worked for them at Castle Hall (St Brides). "He and his wife, the Sharlands, moved there from Kent (I think that's where the nuns came from) to live at Blackbridge Cottage and this is where my maternal grandmother was born in 1914.
