Big family, lived at Foxhill. Alan Crookes worked for the Parks dept in the late 70s. Linda was a nice girl, bit quiet - went to Mansell YC for a while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Linda was a nice girl, bit quiet - went to Mansell YC for a while  I seem to remember Linda and Alan being an item? but could be wrong she also hung around with another girl I think was called Kath but cannot remember her surname. It's funny how you can remember faces but not names. I bet I would walk past most of them in the street and not even recognize them as they are all still teenagers in my mind.

Bushbaby   11 #2124 Posted June 24, 2012 Torch Plans: I'm gonna be at Chaucer Shops (outside Fogg's, just where they used to have the Yo-Yo competitions which our John always won) for the Torch. From about 4:30 onwards. It would be great to meet up and maybe sneak into The Beagle for a snifter afterwards... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
