Children hanging around the church awaiting a 'Hoy Out' way back in 1946.
It would be nice if someone recognises these children. Maybe Lilian was there.

I did it at my own wedding in 68. A great tradition!
I didnt realise that I was making an investment in 53 years of wedded bliss.
It is 60 years since Jean made that fatal step of sending me a Valentines card....until then I would have never have seen myself in the running.
Lucky man!

You had to be very tough to take part in the Hoy Outs. I think I still have one or two scars to prove it.

My ex next door neighbour made the Sunday Sun newspaper back in 1984, when a car ran over his hand, breaking a few bones I think, during a money chuck out down Ralph Street way.
