Fifty-one years later

It’s hard to imagine we started our teacher training at Bingley College of Education in 1970. A group of us (the Bingley Boys) had organised a reunion for 2020, until Covid got in the way. So, a little later than planned we finally got together, and what a night we had!

Four of the ‘Bingley Boys’: Brian M, John W, Steve & Ian…

…and John N to the right of Nick…

…not forgetting Rob to the right of Mike & Moira.

Of course some attendees we’ve seen over the years: Edith, Norfolk John & Welsh Dave


Welsh Dave with Brian S: I’d not seen him for many years!

Jenny S is wearing the old college scarf in the middle of Sue W, Nick, Jenny H, Liz, Anne & Pam

A close-up of Jenny & Anne, still big friends after all these years

There’s a Tine come between two Daves here…

…and Edith with Sue (Mrs Welsh Dave)

My turn to come between John & Dave…

…and Lindsay between Christine & Sue.

Friday night was always disco night at college…

(There’s Tine with Basia, Ro and Sue B. I reckon she’s part of their gang now!)

…so it had to be done, dancing to 60s/70s music of course!

Not the clearest of photos but a very happy Mr & Mrs Blogger!
