The top photo is young Bunny Barnes with his boxing Donkey, he would some times appear on stage at Accy Hippodrome with it.
In the 2nd Photo also taken outside the Oak Tree Inn, (on the corner with Birtwistle St), the chap, leaning on the side of the hot potato boiler, if I'm not mistaken is called Slipper, him and Bunny used to run a few enterprises together, such as selling fruit & veg and light carting, moonlight flits etc.
I knew Bunny and his 3 sons, the youngest was called Gilbert.

Retlaw.
