I will ask Daphne Navarette who is a friend of Nadia Cattouse. When I lived in England in the 60s I met her. Her husband either played in the band with John Dankworth or managed John Dankworth. What is interesting is that my husband and I went to see Cleo Laine and her son was selling her CDs and I mentioned that I grew up in Belize and knew Nadia. He was quite pleased as he grew up knowing her as a family friend. I believe she attended the gala when Cleo Laine became a dame by the queen. Will call Daphne and find out what she knows as the last time she visited London, I believe she stayed with Nadia.
I am also interested in writing about the men from Belize who went to England during WWII. My grandmother always talked of one man, Mr. Thurton from York Street who went and never came back. I met his daughter here in Los Angeles, and found out about another man, I believe his name is Parades. Know his daughter. That would be quite a story.
Never saw this thread before, but then Harry knows everyone and everything going on.
