I was at John and Jimmys birthday do a couple of weeks ago at the cricket club. I know they are twins but the gentleman in the photo looks more like John!

Missed the birthday bash myself due to holidaying in Spain, I'm told it was a good do.
I have worked with James Paul Maye for the best part of 37 years ( Jimmy has done 40 years at Heinz )and although I will agree the picture does look like his twin who I know, It is definitely the Mr Maye who works at Heinz.

I have known the Maye's about fifty years, and that is definitely Jimmy.

Who did jimmy play rugby for

Answers to the last 2 questions;

JP, Yes,Jimmy did go to Thommy More.

Barrie Winrow, I think he played for Wigan Schoolboys and Orrel rugby union for a spell but he definitely played for Heinz when Heinz had a field to play on and a good team!!

Question from me to Barrie, Didn't you go to Pem school at the same time as myself?( some of the names from the past are, Dave Johnson, Stew Brown, John Tudor, Freddy Markey etc etc ?

Regards Phil
