Hi JOHN Sorry i should have left my email address its t.baldwin07@btinternet.com Terry
Oh my god!!! I have never seen this picture nor do I have any memory of it but I am H. Phillips the third boy with the dark hair in the back row next to the tall boy. The boy with the cap in the front is James Holden. I left Platt Bridge in 1955 to immigrate to Australia and now live in the USA. Last time I went to Platt Bridge was 1995. Thanks for capturing this photo..John Bailey..I think we were in St. Nats together.
HI HOWARD WE WERE BOTH IN MRS ASHTONS CLASS IN ST NATS ,YOU SAT ON THE BACK ROW WITH ROY LIPTROT, JIMMY HOLDEN,AND ERNIE WOLSEY.WHEN YOU LEFT TO GO TO AUSTRALIA IN 1954 ALL THE CLASS SIGNED A BOOK WHICH WAS PRESENTED TO YOU BY MRS ASHTON, DONT TELL ME YOU;VE LOST IT,GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU,
Hi John, great to hear from you. Yes I remember the book everyone signed. Unfortunately I lost it somewhere in the variety of moves I have had in my life. Do you still live in the area? Are you in touch with any of the old gang from St. Nats. I have been in communication with Thelma Smith who gave me updates on the people she knows. Great to hear from you and I love this picture.
