thanks so much for the help

well how about that - I'm in Cardiff and Brian Langford was in my class in Rhiwbina school!!

The Collard's are a well known local family here in Whitchurch, Cardiff and were contemporaries of my Dad

I used to go to grammar school with Tony Collard

can't believe this - been on GR for years now and this is the first time this has happened!!

really oh my god i have never met him as my grandmother and him split up i would really love to get in touch with him as i dont even think he knows i exist and he also has three great grandchildren by me if u do know any other info could you send it to me please as i dont really know anything about his side all i knew was his name and where he was from it would be a great help

I'm gobsmacked too!!! I really only knew him from when I was five till I went to grammar school - I shall have to dig out the school photographs and see if I can remember which one he is - pretty sure I will know when I look at them

where are you living now? I am in Whitchurch, Cardiff

not far i live in cwmbran with my partner and 3 children

Oh Magic!

well I've sent you my phone number if you wish to ring me - there is no B Langford in the telephone directory but of course, like me, he may be ex directory

do you know if he has any brothers and sisters you mentioned a tony and i am unsure who he is

Tony would be his cousin - donlt think he had any brothers or sisters - there were no other Langfords in school that I can recall

just been looking at the school photographs - think I might have remembered which one he is - we all look so little!!!!

you have been such a great help thank you for all this information

just took another look - I have three school photographs and I am now pretty sure I have the right one - if only I knew how to scan things in I could send them to you but I'm a bit of a duffer on the old computer with things like that
