Graham,think thats Russ Simm whos stood in front of you.
Hi Sean how are you doing? Pee Val is on my left, the guy on my right?
Dave Grayson is the man standing behind Graham Kirby, Dave was undermanager in the Ince.
Is that Mark who was undermanager in A section as Parkside Closed?
Many happy memories as Overman on that face. In particular spending a whole weekend dragging panzer chain on to that top end when replacing it. Graham Kirby I knew from Tech and was a good lad to work with on opposite shifts. Wolfy was a character I also knew from Tech. Mark Callaghan was our Undermanager for the last couple of years.
Just surprised the Pic was taken with the B team officials when it should have been me and Mick Newton.
Talking of characters from St Helen's Tech what about Joe Mears from Agecroft and Disco Devanne the lecturer. Also Mr Pownall who would digress.
