Hi, thank you for replying to my message, In the video, my father Mr John Alan Stillwell is wearing a white shirt and in the boat, he turns around and smiles. This happens when you pause the clip at 2.33 when you see his face.

Thankyou very much

Marion

@MrJohnalan641 Hi Marion, now I am convinced that John Alan is your father. The person you identified is the only one it could have been. I only knew him as Alan. I would prefere to communicate with you by email, as it is more private - my email: fritz2012@yahoo.com There is one more person who knew Alan I could put you in contact with; it's the one in the sports car and drinking beer. I will write to him first to put him in the picture. Looking foreward to hearing from you. Fritz

Whoever posted this 8mm film, please could you reply, as my father John Stillwell who is no longer with us features in the film. I am his daughter and my brothers and sisters would really like to know if there are any other films featuring our father and perhaps hear from anyone who knew him.

@MrJohnalan641 I find it almost unbelievable that, after all those years, you should recognise your father on my video. I think I know who it might be, but I would like you tell me first which of the people on my video you recognise as your father. Regard, Fritz
