I know three of these 'lads' as they were in my class at St.Paul's school. Graham Parr, Graham Hankey and Alex Sutton. Thanks Alex for writing in as I couldn't remember the names. Wonder what you're all doing. We live in U.S.A.(for 32 years). Great to see your smiling faces.

Hi Doreen, i was also in the same class at St Paul's School as Graham Hankey, i don't remember the other 2 lads names you mentioned. I'm also sorry to say that i don,t remember your name either ( maybe a photo would help ) Other names i remember in the same class were Terence Hankin,Harold Cunliffe,Doreen Croghan (bobby's daughter), Susan Farrimond,mabe you can recall some more names.

hello jean, go to schools-st pauls, 4th pic along you'll find Doreen in the picture.

Hi Eileen,
I just noticed you helped out by pointing to my picture on the other page. I wasn't in the same class as some of the boys mentioned - confusion?? Are you by any chance Eileen Leary from near Ben Johnson -your Mum had a shop?????
Would love to hear from you.
