Is that badge on the blazer an Upholland Grammar School badge? Black with a red lion rampant ?

Wouldn't swear on it Helen but i thought it was Highfield School.

Lovely photo John. Didn't your Derek pass his scholarship? Can't remember him going to Highfield. A young Gill Barker here...she never stop talkin' in those days...Met their Geoff a couple of weeks ago in M&S; he's never altered. How's your family goin these days? Never seen any of them for years...Tell your Dave I said hello. Still support Wolves John? Of course you do...Only a few games left...keep calm! Just noticed in the picture, Jem Bradshaw's house to the right....What happened to him?
Best wishes John...

I don't think our Derek passed his scholorship John, was sure he followed our David to Highfield, then again i could be mistaken.
I bumped into Geoff Barker myself in "The Anvil" pub a couple of weeks ago and was chatting to him about rugby etc. Theres some old pics of Geoff on here when he played for Springfield Rugby, under Sports.
Saw Gillian in Pem Fish Bar about 4 weeks ago.
I very rarely see our Dave anymore even though he only lives in Standish, our Derek in Appley Bridge. Not a clue about Jemmy Bradshaw, Geoff Barker is his cousin you know.
