Michael -
While sorting out some old junk, I came
across a photo album I thought I had lost some years ago. In it
are various Price's photos which I may send you in due course, but in
particular one of a combined Upper & Lower VIth Forms visit to the House
of Comons in 1963, in the charge of Thacker and Howard-Jones.
>Michael -
I occurs to me that I may have omitted to include the
names of the participants when I sent you the photo of the combined
VIth forms visit to the House of Commons. As I would rather you had
them twice than not at all, here they are now, insofar as I can
remember them or perceive who the half-hidden ones are!
L to R:
"Dozy" Dudson; Johnny Beacon; [hidden face]; Neil Auckland;
[hidden face]; Richard "Basil" Barnett;
[forgotten name]; John
"Jayo" O'Keefe; Colin Knowleton; [forgotten name]; John Mitchell;
[forgotten name]; Mr R. Thacker;
[forgotten name];
[forgotten name]; [hidden face]; MP for Gosport & Fareham;
[forgotten name]; [forgotten name];
Mr "Taffy" Howard
Jones; a semi-visible John "Spud" Tanner; [forgotten name];

standing on the steps!)
Dear Michael
I was looking at the SOP website and noticed that Mike Bayliss had
appealed for additional names for the House of Commons picture. I
think I can help with a few.
Starting from the left - between Neil Aukland and John O'Keefe the
chap standing straight and looking forward is Gordon (GJ) Steele.
To the right of J'OK, holding the dangling duffle-bag, might be JJ
Thomas but I am not absolutely sure. Next to him is Eric Dunn.
The tall chap with long hair standing at the back and almost behind
Reginald Bennett MP is Peter Kiddle. Between Bennett and Howard Jones
are AE `Alf' Webb (Christopher?) Adams.
Next to Howard Jones is David Smith and next to him I can see Mick Duffy
peering through. At the back, with specs on, is Tony Cope.
I have a hunch - not all that trustworthy after 43 years and with
scarcely an eyebrow to go on - that the chap almost completely hidden
behind the elevated Mike (I can confirm he was never that tall) may be
Anthony Goldring.
I hope this is helpful. Someone else may be able to correct or confirm
my memory.
Kind Regards
Peter
