Thanks Barry, you have a great memory. Will be over in August, and will be staying with my sisters in Edinburgh Drive, maybe we can keep in touch. I have sent my email address

Just had a thought Barry, wouldn't it be great to have a class reunion!! If you think this could be arranged let me know. I will be in England August this year. What do you think? Do you think this may be too hard???????

Hi Barry
I still live in Wigan near the Brockett and I will be retiring from the Health Service at the end of March.
I was sorry to hear about Ann Hurst-she used to live opposite me in Tunstall Lane in a little terrace called the Valley which has long since been demolished. Susan Derbyshire also lived down there. I see Graham Simm who lives near me and over the years Iv'e seen Alf Wood Kevin Ockwell (his wife works in the Health Service)Saw frank Caruthers in his van about 3 weeks ago-I thik he has a plastering business.Freda Birch lives in Sydney Australia so it may be easier for Margaret to meet with her over in Aus depending on where Margaret lives. Not really seen anybody else. Hows my real old mate Derek H going on?

Hi Barry,
See you have been talking to Derek Hickman who I see quite often. I still live in Wigan in Spencer Road and I still have good memories of Highfield School. I think the idea of Margaret's about a reunion sounds a good idea. Did you?
It would be nice to speak to you.
