I can remember the faces of some of the adults on this photo but I can't put a name to them. It looks like I have a bad case of knock knees - just checking now to see if I've still got them! Can anybody help with the names?

Thanks for your reply Dougie. You're spot on with your observation.We would be going back to church to put all the banners away before doing all again on the Field Treat Saturday.Is that right? I'm trying to think if I know you but the memory is not as good as it might be nowadays.
