Hi Stephen

That would have been my Aunt Barb she was born in 1939. My Mom remembers your name and is 5 yrs younger that Aunt Barb.

Your right about Granddad cleaning the front of the pub down :)

Thanks

It's a pity you didn't go inside Jean, you could have photographed Frothy and myself enjoying a pint of cold John Smiths, what a beautiful day. Brian
 
Frothy it was just being raided by police at the time. I clicked just before four of them jumped out of a car. Jean.
