Coach Outing Remembered   Margaret Wakefield   February 2020
Picture

​In your previous issue there was an article written by Bill Cooper about Coach Trips in the 1950s. The picture of Alan Peacock, Clive Banks and others was taken on the 14 June 1959. I was there and have a picture of some of the others on the trip including a few local girls. In the photo with Alan are Brian Messer (standing next to Alan) and a boy called Paul (standing between Clive and Tony Ford). I think they were both from Bath and at school with Alan & Clive. So, the list of people above is left to right: Alan Peacock, Brian Messer, Clive Banks, Paul, Tony Ford (brother of Kevin) and squatting Gordon Hall.
​
As for the girls - who could possibly be embarrassed at seeing themselves sixty years on from 1959?
