Hello Peter!
Your dad (Gordon) was a good man.
I have two of the engines he made.
The Doonside Mills .75 and the GB 50 that you dad Gordon and David Owens designed.
I'm sorry that I never was able to know your dad. I did get to know David Owens almost 2 years before he passed away.

My Aussie friends (Allan Laycock and Bob Ratts) introduced me to your dad and David Owens years ago.
Allan was able to get the Mills and GB for me years ago.

Thank you Peter
Mike McIntyre
