Debbie, been over to the super store lately? Ask your Dad if that was his car in the photo? Was the damage to the fender from collision with another car? and if so did he file a accident report?

Okay car buffs what model are John and Bern in front of?
Does anyone else think that Bern looks like Ralph Fiennes?

Nobody else sees Ralph Fiennes? He's right there next to the Jesuit.

I was telling my dad about this picture. He does remember it. It was taken in Dundas when Uncle John was a brother. He says he had a 47 Club Coupe and thinks that picture was taken before my parents were married so it would be early 50s.
Rob, you're right, he did look like Ralph Fiennes. I think Bernie has mentioned that before.
Dan, I'm just heading over to the superstore to go to the gym!

Thanks Deb, so the scuff on the bumper? Could there have been a rival for Auntie J's affection and Unc B. "Took out the competition?" Or not.
Ask your mom, your dad may be too shy to reveal his sordid past.
