Re: Back To My Roots

Alan Dickinson, born 1941! I'm sure I knew you, can even see the face.
Was it at Hyndburn Park?
Either way, hello and welcome.

Re: Back To My Roots

Welcome Alan. Any relation to Melvin Dickinson, who had a brother, went to HPk and lived at the bottom of Dowry (?) St ? He is still in Acc and attends Cambridge St Meths.

Cashman is pretending that he is going to Caen. It's more likely to be Colne. He's showing off.

I don't think you will be on the photo that Gordon Booth is talking about, as it was of the HPk Juniors, and you probably went to HPk at the same time as he went to the Grammar School - after the 11plus.

You will no doubt be hearing from 'Little Pom' ( Marion Walsh)

Do you recall any lads of your year who went to the Grammar School ? I think John Wild was in your year there. I would like to find him as I am mem sec for the AGS Old Boys. I'm not so old, being a '41er too.

Welcome.

I hope the forum brings back some happy memories.

No matter how far we wander, our roots are still firmly planted in one place.

Now, Bob, memory is a funny thing! I was right, he's stood next to me and I recognised him. See HP-one for the ladies.61-62 years ago.
