Donkey Hayes.....I remember you well. I was at Woodhouse from '58 to '64; one of the crowd from the "Cross"

we need to keep in touch and catch up with what happened to the cross crowd..I saw David Clark from kiveton a few years ago...bald and driving a taxi in the city..what happened to Freeko ?

My Mum went to woodhouse Grammer, I think she would have been there until the early 60's.Her name was Elaine Scafe.

I think she was a year behind me or maybe she was one of the clever people(anyone not in 4D)..say Hi to mum for me . mike(mick)

Hi Mike .Thanks for your private message; you're dead right!How are you?

I remember Dave Clark,at school he was tiny but a tricky footballer.Until we moved to France 18 months ago, I used to regularly see Barry Whitehead ( Freeko) in one of our locals.Stevew

Steve,a couple of years ago my wife and I went to the school..it seems so much smaller..talk about bringing memories back..smokes behind the trailer classrooms,football in the yard,assembly with Frank PINION..Whom I met while at Radio Sheffield with my band on the radio..I reminded him of his caning expertise..he seemed such a nice man in retirement.By the way I did progress after leaving Chapletown club to some slightly bigger gigs.lol.I have lived in the usa for 20+ years but still visit home very 2 years or so..I wish we could have a Woodhouse grammar reunion some year before we all are too old..I hear from Curley Wilson in southampton occasionally.:thumbsup:

Mike ,great memories heh. Did you know my dad from Chapeltown club?

I agree, we should have some kind of reunion.Curly Wilson also made contact with me thro' Friends Reunited some years ago

Yes,I played with Les when I first made my transition from groups to the clubs.I went to Intake sports,Brinsworth,Tinsley and Silverwood before I moved onto the night clubs ,radio ,recording and cruise lines.If I had known Woodhouse would prepare me for nothing I would have tried harder at school.lol..my last report card said I would make a good living as a soccer playing labourer.hmmm c'est la vie.Happy memories steve.

Mike, have you got the right guy or are you just having a senior moment? My dad's name was Eric who sadly passed away 2004.I last saw Hoss Higgins a couple of years ago.He was fine & well, now semi-retired after selling his garage business in Neepsend and involved with a bird sanctuary near Wombwell.Haven't seen Charlie Dale since school.
