  Interesting picture there Kath. Not able to help you myself as am from another galaxy, but I remember when we used to dress up in all that gear as kids.
  
  By the way saw some of your great pictures over at Abandoned Dover yesterday Kath...Steve showed them to us during lunch. See more on frontpage.

  Don't worry Kath. Maureen has had a look and the only one she can put a name to is Peter Godden, immediately behind Bob.
