Hello,

I'm working on a small project and would like to contact any of the apprentices who started work in August 1977.

 

The list from my memory is

Gary Peacock (me)

Steve cawdwell (big time sufc fan, mum worked there)

Les Cooper (big time swfc fan, lived in Ecclesfield)

Ian hutchinson

Chris Cotten

Glynn Outram (moved to South Africa)

Mark Brewitt (dad also worked there)

Mike? (dad also worked there)

Richard?

+ 1 who left early, I think it was Phil?

 

If you have any info on the above people, please get in touch by pm, or just post on here.

 

Many thanks

Gary Peacock.

Pretty sure it was Glynn Skinner not Outram.

The Richard may have been Richard (Dick) Clark.

 

It's an age thing

Nice to hear from you, she often talked about stanleys long after finishing there. She couldn,t rest after finishing and started working part-time.
