Sadly, John Somers passed away recently.
Hello Ivor
Is Brian in the photo? I knew him well.
Hi Tricia,
I don't think so, (unless he's somewhere at the back!) as the main focus seemed to be the newly set up "Beat Group"!
I played in the Table Tennis team with Brian;- a great lad, always good for a laugh!
Remember Brian very well, he was involved will Wigan Rovers.
I think he was going on his honeymoon to tenerife when the plane crashed. Very sad.
Correction, they were going to Barcelona.
I think it was his first foreign holiday as well.He was a very popular person and every time you saw him you just felt more cheerful somehow.
His car was at my parents house whilst he was on holiday, my Dad was looking into selling it for him.
It's a pity there's not a lot more photos of the Queen's Hall days, they were happy days, mainly due to Bill Rotherham and his enthusiasm
