Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST,Ian Campbell-Harris Date: 11 Sep 15 - 04:05 PM Ahhh Tanners Hatch ! I started going there around the mid 70's ( I'm an old fart lol ). 99% of the time camping out...in all weathers as well...I can remember waking up one morning thinking it was rather quiet, I unzipped the door to the tent and looked out then zipped it back up again...then unzipped it again pretty fast...there was over two feet of snow ! :-) |

Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST Date: 01 Jun 17 - 03:02 PM Jessica Davi(e)s Who knew Jess? She died after a creative and wonderful life a few weeks ago. Last project - Cherry Tree Nursery Bournemouth. Look it up and watch the 25 years video. I was at university with her 1970-3 and she spoke of times at Tanners Hatch (where I had overnighted, on my own, as a walker, by chance) Was it any of you who wrote her the (unsurpassed numbers of) letters she read at breakfast times? We are assembling obituary/account of her life. Please tell. I am spitting into wind here have no idea if I will find you or you will find me back. Thanks! Virginia Taylor (Penrith) |
Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: Bonnie Shaljean Date: 02 Jun 17 - 03:00 PM I'm sorry, I didn't know her - but it's worth refreshing this thread (pushing it back to the top of the page by commenting) because quite often people don't see it the first time around. Hope you net some great recollections! |
Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST,Andy Goodall Date: 29 Jun 17 - 08:13 AM Hi, I knew Steve back in '74-'76 at Tanners playing his 'Customs and Excise spacial' Martin Guitar. He used to teach me Guitar In kingston and i Still remember (most) of the lyrics and tunes to a couple of his songs. 'White Lady' and 'Take me Back' a song about Tanners which he put on tape for me. I gave it back to him back in the 80's, probably lost by now. Andy |
Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: Herga Kitty Date: 30 Jun 17 - 07:37 AM I haven't been to Tanners Hatch since I was on a walking holiday with friends from school in the 1960s, but my partner (now husband) and I have acquired a number of plants from the Cherry Tree Nursery without knowing of Jess's connection with the Tanner's sessions. There was a nice tribute to her in the local free paper last month. Kitty |
Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST,Will Spurling Date: 04 Jan 20 - 08:39 PM Hi Andy Goodall, I've not visited this thread for sometime, good to see your post about having guitar lessons with my Dad. I live near Esher nowadays, I guess you knew Pauline his sister too? I remember his stories about that Martin guitar. Be good to hear more stories! Cheers, Will. |
Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST,GUEST Monksy Date: 03 Apr 21 - 05:21 PM Hi Will As Bonnie said above, it is good to keep this thread alive. I remember your father for his superb guitar playing, lovely bottleneck blues style. And ... for the afternoon when he came into the common room where we were chatting and said that he would break an egg on my head. I thought he was joking when he pressed his hand onto my head, until I fell a cool slimy substance sliding down my neck. To be fair, he did accompany me to the outside tap and washed my hair in the refreshingly cold water! I never doubted his word again..... I hope you are enjoying listening to those old recordings. We certainly enjoyed your dad's music. Warmest wishes Anna (Monks) |

Subject: RE: Tanners Hatch - Finding old friends From: GUEST,Paul J Date: 03 Feb 22 - 03:15 PM Hi all, past and present, a refreshing thread. Couldn’t help adding to it.. It is rumoured I am one of the Tanners Hatch babes! My father used to take materials from ww2 bomb sites in London down to Tanners Hatch One story related to sheets of glass from a west end shop front. That arrived a lot smaller than when they left! I believe he was one of many acting wardens later on in the fifties/sixties. Great to hear TH is still creating |
