Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

This is the year I married Muriel Smeaton, also from " the colliery". We lived behind the butchers shop in Bede Street before moving to Peterlee. I joined RAF and moved away from the area but still remember the happy times we had in Easington. Dances in the Welfare Hall to Gilbert Ridley and his band being one of many. My two mates Tommy Elves and Bobby Carro l(both dead now I'm afraid). Relations still in the area are Mark and Dorothy Hewitson.
