Looking
My name is Dorothy Hartley [neeJones], I lived on Marsden street
when I was single, I went to ST Oswalds and then St Anns RCS.
My husband and I used to go to the Bop club in oswaldtwistle when we were
teenagers , I would like to know if there are any more old Boppers
out there. We now live in Canada.

Re: Looking
Hello Dorothy. Welcome to AccyWeb
I'm afraid I never went to the Bop club but I'm sure you'll find someone who did, or who knows someone who did.

Re: Looking
I never knew looking for friends could be so much fun
I wish I had known about this site a long time ago.
I am looking forward to finding out about more of our
old friends and making new ones.
DOROTHY

Was told about this programme by E mail from Alan Gilmartin from Tasmania
Who must be an ex pat as well.This is my first entry and hopefully not my last.
Also had a book forwarded to me from a friend called Within Grove.Its about Huncoat lads and I get a mention and a photo although my name is mispelt.
Good luck in your search,
