Photo Gallery (are you here?)
A few grainy prints from a long time ago. The first two are taken directly from the pages of the long since defunct Thornton Cleveleys Times, courtesy of my mother's boxes of ancient photos. The third group picture was sent to me by my old mate Pete Holme and appears to come from a copy of the actual photo, hence the better quality. Looks like we're back to the Thornton Cleveleys Times for the final photo, my thanks to Joanna Beith (nee Bird) for supplying the names as well. If anybody can supply names to fill in the gaps please drop me a line on stephen.yarwood@btinternet.com

Front row, my sister Sheila (year below us at Baines' Endowed and later Millfield Secondary), David Jones (Baines' E and GS, nowadays a Doctor in Plymouth), Stephen Yarwood (Baines' E and GS and author of all this!)
Stephen Yarwood, Pete Holme and Sheila Yarwood crabbing at Fleetwood Boating Lake, probably Summer of 69. A piece of string would be tied around an unfortunate mussel and dangled into the water, irresistible to any passing crab. Photo courtesy of Pete's Mum.
Anybody else still got one of these? The top two generally won the prizes whilst third were awarded these rather attractive Certificates of Merit.
