Here I am sitting in my motel room in Anderson South Carolina USA and I can look at the St Helens Star.

I was born in Haydock but now my family lives in

Ashton in Makerfield.

I worked for many years in St Helens before accepting a job with a German company who send me all over the world.

It is fantastic to be able to keep up with local news when I am 6000 miles away from home. I return on the 18th of Dec and will be in the Charcoal grill as soon as possible.

If you put this in the paper please say hello to Len and Mary and Chris and tell them I will see them soon.

Best regards Lynton, they will know

who I mean, lots of love from USA
