My name is Adrian. I lived in Leslie Row, Radcliffe. There was a large family of Straughans living down our street. I remember George, who was about my age. (This seems to be a different George from the one in macca's picture.) I also remember Mary, David, Stan, Eleanor and Norman? who was the eldest. There was also a younger brother who, I think, we called Jonna. Is this your family?

This was a bonfire on the "Big Hill" early 1950s. I am in the middle of the front row, Far right of the front row is David Straughan.

Radcliffe was a great place to live.
