I am anxious to trace any former nursing staff of Holloway Sanatorium, where my father was a patient during the 1950s, who would be willing to tell me something about hospital life in those days.

Of course, if there is anyone who remembers my father, Lt Col Charles Alexander Scott, that would be an added bonus.

He spent a lot of time at the hospital as a result of his experiences as a POW under the Japanese on the Burma-Siam railway.

I am hoping there may be people still living in the area covered by your paper who remember those days.
