Craig-y-Don School early 1950's.

I recognise Freddy Herbert middle row second from left, and the tallest girl in the back row, Ann Davies. They were both from Cwm Place.

Ariel view of the old Ysgol John Bright, Oxford Road, Llandudno.

Previously it was called John Bright Grammer School and prior to that, County School.

Mike Murray, of course it is. Senior moment crept in. It is Paul Turner on the right. Sadly no longer with us, as he passed away in 2005 aged 51. He moved to Germany many years ago and went on to become Germany's foremost authority on the history of the game of golf. He taught Bernhard Langer, John Miles ("Music" - Manhatten Skyline" - "Slow Down" - "One Minute Every Hour") and James Last to name but a few.

Picture is of Paul on the left with James Last on the right. Does anyone remember James Last performing at a private function many years ago in the Roman Room at the Grand Hotel. It was a wedding function I think. Big deal to get him in the height of his fame. Must have cost a fortune.
