The man on the left with the cap and the older man on the right look as if they could be father and son?

I printed off a copy of this to take to Bill johnson, who's having another spell in hospital unfortunately. He was delighted to see his mum and dad, Lizzie (Kearsley) and Bill. They lived in Kays Houses - he says the Cusicks lived in Preston Street, and he used to meet up with Matt Cusick in town before his series of illnesses. He can't identify the chap in the middle... but thinks he knows someone who can.

I printed this off in our parish magazine this month (duly acknowledged, of course). Someone who has the same photo says it was taken on a Labour Club outing to Rhyl, perhaps in a pub called The Ferry. If I remember right, there used to be a pub of that name near the blue swing bridge on the old road over the Dee at Queensferry, which chara trips used to call in at en route to North Wales.
