Re: Looking for Janet McCarthy ? amongst others.
Right all, I trust i find you all happy, fit, healthy and well. I have managed to acquire a class photo that can be found on the All Saints site at Friends re-united, it is the 1959 mob, what a motley crew, but it is nostalgic. If you go there you may see that I am bereft of a few names and uncertain of a few others if any one can help I should be most grateful. Thanks in anticipation Old Saintonian !!!!!!!
P.S. I tried to download photo onto here doesn't seem to like it not surprised really.

The Othe Allan Gilmartin was Micheal's son, Alan died in 2006 age 60. My dad is Norman, his dad was Paddy, there was a poem about Paddy by Nicolas Freeson, they live down Lower Barnes St.

Re: Looking for Janet McCarthy ? amongst others.
Hi all, thanks for your efforts as I say. Well managed to trace Chris Bracewell seems he's an Architect in Blackburn, however he's dropped of the radar, as he's changed jobs and gone to Qatar to do some designining out there, pehaps he's making sand castles. Interestingly enough he designed the stand at the Crown ground where Stanley play, perhaps he'll model the world cup final stadium in 2022 on the crown, now that would be fun. Still no trace of Janet McCarthy though, now come on you can do it? Thanks again Old Saintonian.
