In the sailboat are Michael Bernstein, Sam Elkind and Zeb Ely. Who is the guy with Marie Aherne, Carol Scott and Bridget Brodking? Who are the kids on the dock? And is that really Joe Scanlon in front of the Sweet Shope?
Yes Cosmo, it is our brethren, supremely talented right fielder, Dogfish Joe Scanlan in front of the Saltaire Sweet Shoppe. Tempus Fugit....... Also recognizable are my dear, too soon departed pal Morgan Lightening Whitimore Gondor Baby Bentley, his sister Sharrie, Eltro Dave Standard, Brian Scott as well as some other kids who someone else may be able to identify. Top picture is of teen sweet sisterhood members, Carol Scott, Brigit Brodkin and Marie Aherne, being swooned by Dennis Keane. It refreshes long ago memories. The bottom four pictures were featured in that same year's photo book dedicated to Captain Al Skinner. The threesome on the dock were Richie Jessop, Robbie Monath and Mark Bentley. 1969 was indeed a very magical year............We must get together soon nostalgic Cosmo, to toast the past and moan about our future health maladies, Cheers..... Dogfish Noel, Captain of "The Few, the Proud" '76 and '86 Champion's--
In the Sweetshoppe foto I see, Robert Standard and David Standard in the back with, whom I think is, one of the Keegan Gals. Think it is Tolly Ludlow entering the door, Joe Scanlan and of course, Graham. The other two girls names excape me. What about the last two fotos: the couple walking on the dock and up close girl. Any ideas?
Time it was
And what a time it was
It was...
A time of innocence
A time of confidences
Long ago
it must be
I have a photograph
Preserve your memories
They're all that's left you
The bottom picture.. close-up girl is Sally Standard.
In answer to Cosmo's question on 12 August 2013, I think the fellow is Andrew Bennett. Kelly Brown.
