Hi Michael

Many thanks for the amendments. I will pass them onto Wendy and let her know your interest in the photograph.

Thanks, Wendy, for submitting this photo. Michael Bradshaw drew my attention to it. Like Michael, I do not have this photo! I did in fact remember every face but could not remember every name! I thought the girl next to Yolande Norris looked like one of the Ducker girls. I remember Anne Ducker and thought she had a sister. I look forward to seeing you again soon, Wendy, on one of my visits to Bottesford. The photo brought back lots of happy memories. We had great fun. Also I hope to be able to meet up with Angela and Michael Bradshaw next Spring when hopefully Michael and his wife Liz visit Bottesford. Brenda Turier (nee Sellers)
