ShaunO1 141 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Wish some one could warn the poor sod of what he's got to come over the next 50 years. Bet he wasn't smiling like that ten years later. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Tom 10,396 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 19? He looks about a decade off getting his carriage clock at Arnold Laver. Hardly surprising mind, that’s what watching Wednesday does to you! Link to post Share on other sites

"The trouble with "lessons from history" is that we usually read them best after falling flat on our chins." "Girls are simply wonderful. Just to stand on a corner and watch them go past is delightful. They don't walk. At least not what we do when we walk. I don't know how to describe it, but it's much more complex and utterly delightful. They don't move just their feet; everything moves and in different directions . . . and all of it graceful."

I was friends with Chris at High Storrs and know that he had a good career in the RAF after H S. Until about 4 years back, I played at Caistor tennis club (near Grimsby) with a bloke called Chris who was a Wednesday ST holder still (Koppite). Looked very much like the bloke in the photo. Grey hair now, but same eyes and smile. If so, he still goes to away matches. Pleasant man... in his late 60's so could be him. We didn't use surnames so I don't know wether he was called Carver or not. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Barumowl 45 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Well I'm now 72 and we were in the same year at HS so could well be him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I remember Chris from High Storrs, and was wondering if he was in the tennis team as well, but he was a couple of years older than me. Once an Owl............... Link to post Share on other sites
