Excellent photo, Barton Rafie, here is one of my era. I should be on here but I'm not for some reason, nor are a few of the other regular players. The lad at the bottom left is Keech

Alan Keech. Is he still with us ? not heard of him for years . Also Jai (Gordon Bowron) last I saw of him must have been in 1976 when I was at Kirkley Hall. He appeared one day on a short horticultural course, he was a council gardener.

Funny enought, Keith, I can't remember Keechy. My mate, Bob Barron, used to knock around with him for a while but I can't say I recall him. But the others with the question marks on are a total mystery.

That explains everything, Eileen. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner - a mariner kills an albatross and the ship is 'cursed'. So it was your fault we all had to go to PLR. Mind you, I never liked Ferguson - he made us do country dancing, remember.

Oh yes I remember the country dancing, did we not do it at the youth club as that didnt burn down in the fire?

I can't remember dancing there, Eileen, but I can remember doing the Bradford Barndance and the Gay Gordon at PLR with Ferguson poncing around. Anne Evans was my partner one day.

But I do recall watching Genghis Khan at the Youth Club, so they must have shown films there!!
