Here again Frank, sad to say young Jack Phillips died a number of years ago. So sad as he and me were best mates as you know. the Wheatley brothers I don't know what happened to them but I think they are still about. The pay days were so funny with all the guys mimicking and taking the mick i.e. Tom Hoooooolsgrove, and the bird song when Denis Nightingale's turn came and many more. Eddie Larwood is gone and Charlie Page died in Australia. Mickey Hodgeson gone and many more. My ex wife used to work in Basildon hospital and she kept me informed(sad lady). Yes, true I used to bake a few but who wants to go all over the plots for a few bills when next day will do hehehehe!! Catch up with you later. Cheers, Jim
