Dear Patricia.

At last someone has replied to my comments thank you for the rest of the names. Sorry but the then young girl on the end was Molly not Heather Nutman. Before I met my now wife when I was a young lad I use to go out with Molly her sister Heather married a lad from Castior, I think his family kept the public house called The Green Gate that was then oppisite Beach road. I remember you very well you were a top skater I hope your children? or grandchildren knows what a great skater you were. I enjoy looking back to those happier days. Maybe Patricia you could also put some more names to some more faces ie the eleven young ladies posing on the pier I know only one Pat Andrews they were of the Skaterscades 1951? Great to read your comments, I hope some more people will join us.

Dear Patricia Colclough it appears that you and I seem to be the only ones who read these items? The other skaters out do not seem to want to join in the good old times.

Itis such a shame as there were so so many of us. I did ask about PAT ANDREWS. Did she & her partner, whos name I cannot remember, ever get together? Did they get married ? Have children ? Have they any grand/children? My partner Tony Bean what happened to him? I know we are all getting on abit but with a lot of help from my children & Grandchildren I have mastered most of this computer lark So come on you Great Yarmouth Roller Skating ex-memebers lets put some names to those faces on the photos please.

Give our future generation something to look back on. I am sure Laura Matthews of this web site would only be to pleased to help I think?
