Thanks for that Terry. It must be age but I don't recognize too may. I see yourself, Billy H, Mick Towey, Derek Toothill, Brian Barry and maybe Bernard Cusani but after that I am stumped.Apologies to anyone I should have recognized.

Thanks for the names Terry. Some I haven't seen for 40 years but I should have recognized Tony Mahoney as I have bumped into him a few times.

Pity I (and brother Phil) missed the re-union. I know most of the names but none of the faces (not even cousin TommyO) - the hairstyles have changed in 40 years. Do you know about the missing names like Barry Jackson, Jimmy Kirk, Brian and Bernard Mullaney?

Is it the same Terry Bates who worked in the Toolroom at Plesseys, Pioneer Works, Union Bridge,
