Hi Harry, Great photo's lad. Just one question, why is Johnny Taylor missing from both teams?
PS, How's yer jaw!!!

Hi Stephen, great to hear from you. Heard about you from my sister Jean. I'm doing fine. Being fed through a straw for twelve weeks because your jaw is wired up does wonders for the figure. I was thinking the same thing about Johnny. He must have been playing rugby or something.

I also see Paul Kite is missing from the 69 side and his brother John who was in my class is playing. Harry i love these old photo's, they bring back so many memories. Do you have any others?
