Further to my comment above I forgot to mention my father was of Indian ethnicity.

I am doing some research and wondered if anyone worked at the Odeon, Gaumont or ABC/Regal in Halifax anytime between 1959 and 1964. My biological father visited the cinemas to collect Union subscriptions for the NATKE union. Two former projectionists remember him and said they thought his first name was Robin. He was very smart in a suit and tie and may well have visited other cinemas in other towns. Any information would be great. My email is .uk.

I am doing some research to try and find my biological father. He was a regular visitor to the Odeon,Gaumont and Regal/ABC in Halifax. I have been told he worked for the union and collected subs every few weeks. He was a very smartly dressed man of Asian descent believed to be called Robin. I know he was there in 1959 to around 1964. Can anyone remember him? Thanks.
