The following collection of pictures (above and below) come from Karen Lassiter:

Hello good people.... My name is Karen Lassiter and I am here at Abbey Road "crossing over" with my son, Marcus. I bought him here to London to celebrate his 23rd birthday and of course, we had to stop on by Abbey Road!! We were here on holiday from the United States (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to be exact) from April 22nd to April 29th, 2005 (these photos were taken April 27th) and we had the best time ever. Crossing Abbey Road was quite an experience for me and my son and this is definitely one of those instances that will be talked about amongst our family for many generations!!!!

When Peter & Judy Conrad made their recent trip to the UK from Ohio, USA, I had the pleasure of meeting them and hearing about Peter's musical skills and the fact that he was on his way to Liverpool to perform at the legendary Cavern Club...........
 
............Above, on 4th May 2005 this was Peter at the Studio entrance..........
 
..........followed by Judy. They discovered that they had missed seeing George Martin arrive at the Studios by just 10 minutes! ........
 
.........Jeff Jarratt and Peter at the Abbey Road Café.

It was an unusually cold and windy day so it was good to be able to meet at the Café for a chat and hot drink before Peter and Judy had to make their way to............

 
............Liverpool! This is Peter performing together with John MacCrafrae at the Cavern Club on May 7th 2005.
