Hi Chris, 'Curly's' aware of this photo and has told me that he is indeed the lad with 'fuzzy' hair on the back row. You should see him now! He's smarter than a Philadelphia lawyer.

Hi Chris, I'll certainly pass-on your regards to 'Curly' the next time that I see him.

Hi Chris, Spoke to 'Curly' and his lovely wife this morning in the bookies. I've passed on your regards and mention of the Blackpool photo to him. Your regards brought a huge smile to his face; while Mrs Curner remained in 'silent worship' of him. See the effect you have on people, Chris! Keep Well.
