Hi Paul and Karl
Regarding Photo AW0765 (above)
I recognised Dal Dewgarde on the dinner dance photo when you first put it up on the
web site, however I was not totally sure at that time. A little bit more info about Dal, The correct spelling of his Christian
name is Dalmaine.
I know him not from Auto Wrappers , as he was there before my time, but from my old Scout Troop the 1
st
Norwich.
Dal
was
a
Scout
Leader
there
in
the
1960's.
He
went
onto
work
at
the
foundry
that
used
to
be
in
Oak
Street.
In
the
1960's
he
lived
in
Pottergate
before
all
of
the
slums
were
pulled
down,
and
before
his
death
he
lived
at
the
end
of
School
Lane
where
it
meets
the
ring
road
near
the
Sprowston
Road
roundabout.
I
went
to
his
funeral
which
must
have
been
about
ten
years
ago.
Dal
was
originally
from
British
Honduras
and
for
many
years
was
associated
with
the
Manchester
Oddfellows
as well as being a Broadland District councillor.
I have attached a page from the 1
st
Norwich book (see below) which has a picture of Dal in Germany in 1966. You might
also find a picture of me as well !

Kelvin Woodard
