Jon Anderson,(Curly), as he was known, used to live in Spring Street, (Spring Hill), in the early 1960s; I say this with the knowledge that my wife also lived in Spring Street at the same time and knew him very well, he would have been 13 or 14 at the time.

His first job was at the Nori brickworks, where a lifelong friend of mine taught him how to turn the ginny wagons that ran under Whinny Hill from the now known as Whinney Hill quarry.

The aforsaid friend always remarks that his main claim to fame was instructing the millionaire half of Jon and Vangelis how to work in a big hole in the ground.

Your's as ever Taddy.
