On an unstamped letter I received today.
Live at Norton’s Red Lion.
Pictures from last night’s event in aid of the charity CRY held in the Theatre Suite of Billingham Synthonia Club…
The artists who performed were Andy Brown, the first British artist to be honoured in the Country Music Hall of Fame, a specially reformed Raised on Rusks, a talented acoustic duo – Louise & Andy and So What?.
The real stars of the show were the young men and women who came to enjoy themselves and pay respect to their lost friend Jonny.
Probably for the last time at CRY Charity event in Billingham.
Better photos will follow.

Half Gallon Walk, a set on Flickr.
A trial for part of a forthcoming local Gallon Walk, it was a little wet and muddy today but fun nonetheless.

This view of Billingham Town Centre is two or three years earlier than the one on Ann’s blog. It was taken in 1965 or 1966 when the outdoor events of the Folklore Festival where held at this location and could be watched for free. The West Precinct is still under construction in the background and at the top of the helical pram ramp is the shop which started this round of nostalgia bearing the name “Toys – Prams – Do It Yourself”

There has been a fair amount of media coverage of the Duke of Edinburgh’s 90th birthday tomorrow*. It reminded me of some pictures I took about 30 years ago of him partaking in one of his favourite sports at Lowther in Cumbria…
*I believe he usually celebrates his birthday on 28th of May which was the date in the Julian calendar in use in Greece at the time of his birth, 10th of June is his date of birth in the Gregorian calendar.
