Ah no, he was in the year above me too…… your name definitely rings a bell. My year was Martin Teece, Dave Bradley,John Dean (ex St Peters?) Dave Barlow RIP, Simon Kelkin, Mark Brammer… ex Holden Lane, me (David Williams) Mark Whalley, John Oakes, any names you recognise ?
I was in the same Geography class as Martin Teece. Was John Dean head boy at St Peters, I do remember him and I was good pals at school and 6th form with Dave Barlow
Tiko 😂😂yes that John Dean…. I became very friendly with Dave Barlow after 6th Form, one of life’s great enthusiasts and so sadly missed, as I’m sure you know he collapsed and died in his parents arms on the finishing line of the Stafford Half marathon. My long time girlfriend Lynn Griffiths did Geog
Yes I knew about Dave. I used to bump into him at Stoke games occasionally when he was with Rob Cocker (Marty). He was a good lad. I remember Tiko had a band and I'm sure they played The Talbot.
I was drinking in Charlies about a week after Wetherspoons took over the Wheatsheaf and Dave said to me and my mate who were the only ones in there "fuck it let's get round there and I'll buy you a drink, it'll save on the heating"😌
I was just about to ask you if it was called Valentines before. Can remember the canopy on the front as we'd walk past to the bus in Glebe St after losing all our money in the Silver Coin😊
That's a blast from the past, I'm surprised I can't remember you from then because I managed to spend some lunch times in there when I was at 6th form. Never saw Bar billiards anywhere else apart from the TV program Indoor League. (God I'm old)
