Lost friend (From Barry And District News)

Lost friend

I write to you in desperation. I'm desperately trying to find my dearest lifelong friend who I believe lives in the Barry area.

Her name is Tina (nee Rogers) now married - I think her married name is Gibbs. I'm 40 next June and it would be the best present I could ever receive.

Tina and I grew up in Derby but Tina and her family moved to Wales in the early 1980's.

She would be about 38 years old now but we have known each other since we were babies.

Tina lived in Carlisle Street, Sinfin, and I lived in Sheridan Street, Sinfin.

We went everywhere together practically joined at the hip.

Her last known address was Dyfrig Street, Barry. But I believe that she married and moved house.

I also moved address and eventually lost touch. I last went to see her at New Year 1990.

Since then a few phone calls and letters have been our last contact. I know her mum is Jean, her dad is Ken and she has a brother named Ian. All I believe in the Vale of Glamorgan area. Although her mum briefly went to stay in Doncaster. I would be so grateful if you could put a little contact message in your newspaper as I don't know what else to do, I really think your my last hope. I know her birthday is September 20 or 21.

Please if you can help in anyway, I would be eternally grateful.
