Thank you both your comments. 
I was chuffed to find these Pelargoniums flowering yesterday! Before Covid came along our daughter told us about an annual plant fair held in the village were she lives & as it was almost my birthday she asked us to go over so we could celebrate it with her family. She then took us to the fair & gave me some money so I could buy whatever I fancied. I chose 4 Pelargoniums of which these 3 are flowering. I don't know yet if the 4th one is still alive, I will have to wait a bit longer. I expect it to flower but as I still have various on the kitchen windowsill that haven't started flowering yet, it could be any one of them. Of course these are not the original plants I bought but cuttings of cuttings, etc! The one that is missing was Maroon with white patches; it's a slightly smaller plant than the others.

This is a picture of it from 2021

There are several more that haven't flowered yet either.

This is one I bought at a garden centre & have had it for at least 15 years.

None of these plants are the originals but cuttings of cuttings over many years!

None of his sprouted! 
After about 3 or 4 years it flowered for the first time & has flowered every year since (4 or 5).
