Hello Allan.
Love this photo. Edna Latham is my sister as I'm sure you know. I remember Sheila Pidgeon and I sometimes bump into Joyce Bradshaw.
Jimmy Parry was a nice lad. I worked with him,walked with him and drank with him. I seem to remember he had a foot problem on one of our walks in the Lake District. Roy Thompsons boots didn't fit him too well.
See you in the Tippings.

Good pic, I was born at 7 Kipling Avenue in January 1971, it was my Grandma & Grandad's house.

Mick Parky was a very very good friend of mine, as tuff as they come , and a complete gentleman , loved him like family.
