I think that this must have been in the Summer of 1974.The Ashton and German scouts had spent 10 days at Loch Goilhead and the last 4 days in Ashton. This is where we waved them off for the last time at Wigan North Western.
Out of the Ashton lads I can see Ian Aitken,Mick Pilling and Kevin McGarry but can`t remember any of the German scouts names.
Perhaps if Roland Graf still visits this site he could put a few names to faces
Yes that is Ian Aitken with the helmet and me next to him and I think Tony Cahill (cadge)is peeping his head through behind me. Me and Ian must have gone on my old Triumph 500
fltr Manfred Fottner, me Roland Graf, Thomas Kovacs (knife)
and Werner Bosslet (blonde)
Roland, is Manfred the lad on the crutches ?
I could never remember his name but I remember him breaking his leg up in Scotland.
