Do you know what year it was? I made my first communion at St John's around 78, but that isn't my class?
it was 1970 done my home work
What a beautiful photo just look how smart they all are lovely white ankle socks and T bar sandals, None of your ugly trainers then. x
I was in Philip Bowden's year and we made ours in June 1968. This was either 1969 or 1970. Richard and Stephen Lea I recognise.
Front row L-R; Me & Nick Roberts, Paul O'Connor & Paul Gaskill, ? & Tim Jones, Richard & Stephen Lea, John Gannon & ?, Gary Lamb & Stephen Bowden. Back row Paul Sharples, Mark Hughes and John Roberts. Missing Tim Sherry and possibly before Dave Middlehurst joined. No idea regards the ? marks. I think our bow ties were yellow and we we to the school dinner hall or St Johns club after. We had three sets of twins in the class.
We all look terrified!
It was a long time ago which doesn't seem that long ha ha
Alan Green and Dennis Donavon
