must be @ 1960. I am sitting centre playing with Tap-Tap,which you can still buy in traditional toy shops. Note my plastic Poppet beads from Woollworths.....saw some on e-bay recently for £18!Unsure of two names,but can name most of the children.....John Crossland, Jean Knowles, Stephen Reeves, Stephen Wynn, Keith Johnson, William Melling, Goeffrey Ryding/ James Tonge, Susan Myers.Boy standing in front of Mrs. Hill Brian or Eric somebody.Look at the paper golliwogs we'd made....we probably wouldn't be allowed to make them now.....does anyone agree with me that things have gone barmy?!

Is the boy on the left wearing glasses Steven Reid?
He lived across the road from us and was friends with my Brother Denis Miller

It's Stephen Reeves, Ann. The lad who lived next door to him was Billy Rhead. They lived at 117 and 119 Ince Green Lane respectively. I remember Denis.
