I think it's Raymond Edmondson next to his mum, and the blond lad next to the end is Andy or Stey Fishwick.

Even though I was at grammar school they let me tag along due to the fact I was our kids twin.Unfortunately don't know if its me or our kid,definitely one of us.Its probably our kid as I got badly burned and sun stroke,not sunbathing but just playing in the sea

Somebody keeps printing that Calafell was on Costa Blanca,but seeing that it lies North of Salou which is Costa Dorada,incorrect.Went to Calafell with Kenny Bell in 2013,had a few meals in Hotel Canada and the owner daughter of same family from 1962.Treated Kenny and I to two big Soberanos,very nice lady

Just came across this photo. Yes, that's Andy Fishwick second from the right end and I'm pretty sure I'm the skinny kid standing next to him. I left Whelley a year later after passing the 14-plus and was transferred to the Grammar School.
