Laurence Fairhurst trussed up by workmates with Frank Orrell, left, in the middle of Standish prior to his wedding. Not sure of year.

Wasn't that outside Rainfords butchers opposite St Wilfrids church?

Wothingtons butchers Linda, which, under the title of the Eagle and Child was the Photo-a-Day on 28th July this year. For all those who commented on the photo regarding one of the downspouts and water from it possibly going under the front door, i can tell you that a new door has now been fitted in a slightly raised position, thus creating a small doorstep.

I'll go for 1968 if it's Laurence who worked at Mayflower works.

Laurence. You really are a stunner! Frank, do you still have that fine head of hair? Tony

No Tony a bit thinner on top now. In fact an old fly and a young one landed on my head the other day and the older one said "This was just a footpath when I was a lad"
