I'm not sure which of the two Hardy lads was which, the names could be reversed and they were not related. Colin Bramfitt came from Wheatley Hill and I was always given to believe that his Dad was a policeman. The Vipond girls were twins. I knocked about with Richard Hepburn, Dave Skillcorn and Chris Ellis at school but never away from it as they came from Horden or Blackhall. I think the Hardy's came from Shotton. David Tonks was from Wingate and was related to the Tonks transport people. I think Geoff Corner was from Wingate too but I'm not positive.

Updated info from Joyce Kirton via Ken, now Mrs. Joyce Norriss living in Canada. Joyce is fourth from the right in the front row.

Update from Ken with some name changes.
