St Albans News’ May edition takes a walk down memory lane (Edgeware Rd) with a kiwi lad who grew up in St Albans but made a name as a rugby writer in France for French newspapers. Ian Borthwick, son of the late Basil and Natalie, also took some eerie photos with no people in them during the lockdown in Paris several years ago and these have been on display in Christchurch. Daph Parkins, now in her mid 90s and still going strong, talks about her childhood in 1930s St Albans.
