The Club Committee Members - 1970s - photo from John Richardson - Bygone Bedlington Facebook group - posted with this comment :- Here is one from my dads collection. It is the Station W M Club committee I guess from the 1970s. My dad gave me my membership card on my 18th birthday. We had some good nights there, hard to imagine we had to queue to get in at weekends, Christmas etc. My dad Joe, is third from right on the back row. I know some of the others, Bill Crosby, Jack Chapman and Jack Routledge but struggle with the other names, perhaps members could name them? Within 2 days a name supplied for everyone in the photo, three not 100%

Can't do any harm HPW. I think it you created a couple of topics in History Hollow or Chat Central, say one for each school, then I could 'copy & paste' each separate class list of names into a photo/image/jpg file and add them as individual entries in the Whitley Memorial & Westridge Albums. That way any member could then comment and/or update each Album entry and we shouldn't get the class names mixed up. -
Names updated on the photo HPW and I have posted the updated photo back on the Bygone Bedlington Facebook group site and 'tagged' Jim Hardy. I will see if he replies and see if there are any more updates before I upload here. There was also a comment on the Facebook site from a David Walker, and it was him that identified himself, No 22, in the photo. So I 'tagged' him as well using your ear wiggling story to see if he reacts to that.
