I have included an extract from Jack's email below

Hello Alan
I discovered your great website last week and it brought back a lot of memories. Particularly the reminiscenses of Fred Pickering, who I feel I should know. I certainly knew two of his classmates, Raymond Chadwick and Billy Redfern. The Chadwicks lived in Walnut St, Gorton, I can't remember where Billy lived. I grew up in Pinnington Rd and our house backed on to Peter Pan Park. It's tempting to start listing names, but that wouldn't achieve very much. Also, my memories of Gorton would be very similar to Fred's, with the addition of fishing for tiddlers in the canal and sitting on the window ledge of the Railway Hotel on Chapman St, collecting train numbers. Just a little bit about me. My name is Jack Baxendale. I grew up in
Gorton and have lived in Perth, Western Australia since 1969. I went to Abbey Hey Junior School and left in 1948. I have attached a picture of my class taken that year. I hope the quality is ok, but if not, let me know and I will see if I can improve it without increasing the file size too much. I have had a go at remembering the names, but allowance must be made for
the omissions and spelling errors.

The above photo and information kindly sent in by Jack Baxendale from Perth, Western Australia. 22/10/204

Many thanks Jack
