Wigan Album

Second from the right Keith Austin?
Fourth from the right Hewitt?

Think the first three from left are,Richard Cotton,Graham Nelson,and Joe Gannon.Also see John Walker I think in centre nine in from left

I recognise a few faces - but no names - I left in 1965. Good picture though. Got any more John ?

I think the boy 1st on right is Brian Gibson from Dickens place in Worsley Mesnes

Yes Joan it is Brian Gibson on the front row next to Keith Austin,behind him is Jack Horrocks,next to Keith is John Grundy,next is David(chewy) Hewitt,front row l/h recognise Joe Gannon, Norman Carr,great photo John,hope to see you at the next re-union,when Linda organise's and informs us.

I can remember Graham Nelson second from left Norman Carr John Higham blonde haired lad at front Tom Grundy bushy haired at back David Chewy Hewitt small lad at front Jack Grundy next to him . Me ( Jack Horrocks ) stood next to Ian Austin and Brian Gibson . This photo was taken by John Highams mum at Wigan North Western station , waiting to go to Blankenberg

That's me 3rd from left next to John Higham, ( not related )I recognise Dave Hewitt, Keith Austin,Brian Gibson and other faces I can't put names to. 10 days in Belgium for £10.10shillings with teachers Mr Hurst Mr Mawdsley,Mr Griffiths & Mr Richardson probably others I can't remember. We stayed in the Hotel Lion De Flandre

It was £18 10 shillings not £10.10 shillings ( still can't type )

I believe I am the one you cannot see fully, stood behind Jack Grundy. I cannot remember names but the lad between me and Tom Grundy is Allan (?) Halsall. We went to Blankenberg twice and one set of memories merge with the other; I shared a room on one trip with Tom Grundy and several others including David Turner; on the other trip I shared with Halsall and a couple of others. Blankenberg was fun, you could hire a pedal car quite cheaply and tour the whole town along all the streets despite the motor traffic.

I am not on this photo but recognise a few faces but can't put names to them. Had a good time and can remember Tommy Cooper was on the train down to London happy days

yes you are right i am the serious looking one on the far left looks like we are going to prison not on holiday brings back memories

I remember Tommy Cooper on train.All the teachers were in buffet car with him down to Euston.They were well oiled when they got off.Enjoyed it, needed a holiday when i got back.On the last night a lot of us were on the lager.We all got served.Unbelievable.

I can see Alan 'Egg' Lowe on there. Boy oh boy he had an appetite. He couldn't half put it away. Nice lad though.
