Alright Martin, Don't think the second lad is Barry Simpkin as he would have been too young to be in this photo. Is it not Terry?

Remember Bob & Dave Pearce from Tontine youth club in 1967. Was Robert Short the brother of Liz, my first 'girlfriend'? Also remember Joyce Aspey and Marjorie Holcroft from the youth club. I remember running down to the 'Abbey Lakes' to catch the last bus home. Long-gone days of innocent youth, so happily recalled. Thanks, Colin.
