SIR: I am hoping that someone in your wide readership will be able to help me to resume contact with two old friends of mine from many years ago.
The two men that interest me are: Derek Pilkington, whose father was a dentist. Derek attended the old Church Institute (later Canon Slade Grammar School). He was an accomplished musician. playing the trombone with his own bands and others - for which outfits he provided up-to-the-minute arrangements.
Then there's Ronnie Southern whose parents had a shop in Crosby Road, Bolton, during the time that Ronnie attended Road School with me in the years: 1938-1941
I may he contacted on 01925 265400 or at my home address.
