More evidence and travels...

Garnell is known to have frequented Southwold since an early age. He can just be made out peering from a window of The Swan hotel in the postcard below.


He was also a known presence in both Cambridge and Brighton at the start of the 1980s as these startling images from the treasure trove reveal.




A closer look at both images reveals his penchant for giant spectacles, considered 'stylish' at the time. For Nick, his childhood years saw him torn between two heroes- Joe Mcclaine, aka the Gerry Anderson creation, Joe90, and that last clean cut cowboy, The Milky Bar Kid.
