Hey Warday

I can remember your Jim and the salt tablets he used to take in the mill. He could clear the top of a bus no problem. I did not know him closely but he was a lads lad great fun and a good laugh. I remember him getting the pigeons down with the corn can.

Hi Bibby1

I made a mistake saying that there were Hancocks on Handley St

They were actually Kynochs

There were 2 Hancocks at PyeBank school called Carol and Jaqueline. They would be about 73/74ish now. This is according to "Redfyre" on the PyeBank thread (about page 23/24).

The plot gets thicker Bibby1. Maureen Foster is listed in "Redfyre's" list. Maybe he got one of the Hancock girls christian names wrong. Is your mum around the 73/74ish
