Comment by: Richard Lundy on 9th November 2008 at 16:10

I wasnt in your class Cliff but I remember you. Did you ever join the Navy? You look a bit nautical ,, like the uncle from Fools and Horses.

Comment by: cliff Higham on 10th November 2008 at 00:43

'Shiver me timbers' Richard lad, 'Navy' ? no, cant swim.
I followed my dream became a Morris Dancer, I took a degree and gained a 1st at Platt Bridge university and and later a chair, I now tutor the less fortunate at my own Morris Dancing Academy in Bryn.

Comment by: Fred Mason on 20th February 2009 at 19:15

Gee, Cliff,

You didn't join the navy because you can't swim??

So that's why you didn't join the RAF...because you ain't got wings...!!!!

See ya...

Comment by: Knowlsey on 23rd February 2009 at 16:10

I heard Cliff Higham emigrated from the Bellingham to the Millstone.

Comment by: Florie Bithel on 5th March 2009 at 10:26

Actually I think if Cliff was serious he would admit to being a joiner. I asked his missus where he was the other day and she said he was propping up the bar in the Brocket.

marge is lovely barmaid in the Millstone she always greets with a gorgeous smile, nice girl, oh and she,s not large and her name is not Marge, somebody on here gave her the that name, maybe she,s taller than us (who,s not) an large, rhymes with large, go pay her a visit.

Ladies & Gentlemen be upstanding for Clifford Higham and his wee buddy Bernard Duddy. Yes friends Clifford and Bernard are 21 again today. They share the same birthday.
Congratulations come from friends: Fred Mason, Bill Brown, Elma Hardman, Noel Smith, Tom Hager, Dave Ridout, Derek Worthington, Joe Hill, Joe Fairhurst, David Pyke and Norman Melling. For anyone who wishes to buy Cliff and Curly a drink please meat them in the Brocket Hotel tomorrow eveing 20th June in the Brocket Hotel.
Clifford and Bernard were born on the same day at the same time in the same hospital. Co-incidentally their families shared the same milkman Clifford Bernard Jones. 80 year old Clifford remembers visiting the hospital on that day and describing the two young fellows as cheeky and chirpy and looking so alike they culd have been brothers. So lets raise a glass to these two wonderful personalities. You wont see their likes again.
