Alan Dodd is my brother - in - law .

Re: Looking for Janet McCarthy ? amongst others.
 

Thanks for the information Greeny. Is Alan the same guy who was at St Christopher and left in 62. If he is, I hope he is well and could you ask if he remembers me. He should do if it is the same one. He came to see me in Blackburn Hospital in 1963 after I blew my hand off with a home made bomb. I think thats the last time I saw him.

Re: Looking for Janet McCarthy ? amongst others.
 

Think it is the same Alan,he did go to St Christophers, he also came from Clayton and went to a bakers on leaving school.He is coming up 63 in June,lives on York St Accy and works at Hollands pies.
I have told him about these post, he is calling in to see me on his way home from work this afternoon. I shall see if anyone like yourself or cashman is on line when he gets here. His wife Janet and my hubby David are brother and sister.

Re: Looking for Janet McCarthy ? amongst others.
 

Yes it is rather a good thread I feel, some real names from the past cropping up. Keep it up all as always regards Old Saintonian!!!!!!!
