Tyneside, Would I be correct in saying that Jeffery Dixon took Cliffords over 1967ish, Regards Larry.

North Eastern RHA members circa 1967. I know a few of the names. Mebbe Larry Dunbar and a few more of the older generation can put some names to faces.

All the best for the hospital Kenny, by the way, that photo of the tug of war, looks like Davy Rogerson’s never changed, good at supervising other people working. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: have you heard how he is lately? Regards Kev.

Last saw Davy few months ago at Micky Hopkins Funeral.To be truthful thought he was looking a little paistie, but hes just plodding on looking after his missus who isnt to grand. ( must give him a bell) still lives Framwellgate Moor
