A young Allan Brooks at home.
Dogs have always been part of his life.

Allan during his National Service days,
attending to the payroll !

Allan aged 19, and sporting a fine head of hair !

With Eric Swallow in Austria

In the grooming parlour in Luton

Snapped coming out of a shop with Eric,
i think the look says it all !!!

Allan was "Our Dog's" breed notes correspondent for many years.
Of course he always had the Great Dane to proof read for him.

Doubtless many who read the breed notes,
may well have wished a trip to the stocks on him
,,,,,or worse !!!!

Relaxing at Gayhurst, with cigarette as per usual.

The Court Jester enjoying the Midland Fancy Dress Ball,
and of course another cigarette !!
