Hi Dave is that Jimmy Duffy middle front row, blonde hair

I know quite a few faces but the names aren't there. However, standing at the back left, with waistcoat and pint, is Bill Slater who lived at this time in Poplar Ave. Sitting on the front row with pipe and score sheet,I'm almost sure,is Arthur Winstanley from Cedar Grove; perhaps Carol can confirm.

not to sure frank, thought it could be ronnie collins.

Back row 3rd from right is marli frodsham,front row r/h side is tommy lewis, directly behind him is bill lewis, to the left of tommy is gerry lewis, 2nd row 2nd from left i think could be john dooney but not to sure.

Hi Dave, great photo only just spotted it Geoff Aspinall was at our house yesterday wish i had seen it then could have shown it to him im sure he would have been made up with it. Will show it to him next week. Is it ok if i take a copy of this photo i will restore it and give a copy to Geoff and Ann Frodsham because Mylie her Dad is on it.

Hi janice, by all means copy it please, i can see it being a better pic when you have cleaned it up, i have a few more old ones when i get time put them on, thanks janice.

Reliably informed its the legion trip to Pilling

David I can make out who is our dad, but which is grandad and uncle Bill?

Hi tina, grandad and uncle bill are at the very end r/h side of pic.

Hi janice, frank says this is a trip out from possibly the s&s legion, i know my dad used to drive for tommy aspinall perhaps he was driver on this occasion, i never actually met tommy but heard a lot of good tales about him of my father.

now I remember grandad but never would of picked out uncle Bill.I remember him more when he was older,but then again I'm the youngest of the group!

Hi janice, did you manage to clean this pic up, if so could you send me a copy please, thanks.

Far left standing looks like Hughie Sutton from Spindle Hillock.
