THIS picture of a trip 50 years ago from the Pilot Works in Bolton has come all the way from Australia! To view it, click HERE in our Looking Back Photogallery. The photo will open in a separate browser window.
Former Boltonians Ron and Ethel Bates, who have lived in Australia for the past 36 years, tell me that it was the annual picnic of the workers prior to their going to Blackpool.
"We keep in touch with Bolton by reading the Evening News on the Web," they tell me. If anyone remembers them, and wants to make contact, their address is 114 Lander Road, Trott Park, Adelaide, South Australia, 5158 (e-mail: roneth919@bigpond.com)
