A tragic teen's heart-breaking note that he hid to 'remind him of happy times' four years before he was killed in a motorbike accident has been discovered and reunited with his family - almost 50 years later.
Nicky Martin, 32, found the note written on a piece of cardboard and stashed under skittles in an old bowling alley while knocking down the Lord Nelson Pub in Bristol.
The note was written by Gary Wait in March 1975 and described how he was working to 'stick up' the knocked down skittles aged 16 to pay for his moped but was hiding the note so that 'someday he might find it and read it'.
