Good picture Ed. They appear to hold a position of responsibility shown by the ' collar ', where did they work ? Was it Heinz ? I bet you hold treasured memories of the lads, especially today on what would have been their 100th birthdays. Thanks for posting.
Nice one Ed.
Jack and Edwin, Jack was my first foreman at HJH and was for many years, a gentleman. Never forget his first words to me on my first shift. Sit down Roy we'll have a chat.
'' We don't have tins and lids here, we have cans and ends or covers'' and that statement has stuck with me for 58 years. Edwin was my supervisor for the last few years.
Ed, did Edwin end up living in Jersey ?
RIP the Fort twins.
Sorry Ed, make that 48 years !!
Sorry Roy my dad didn’t go to Jersey both he and brother lived all their lives on Wigan.
Ed,did John have a son named John and lived on Hunter Road in Marsh Green.
