RAF Haydock

[Sunshine Girl]

Hi All!

Just got back on the site and spent the last hour or so reading all the new and interesting information that has been posted since I was last here.  Some names I can recall but not faces - and some faces I can recall but not names

Question for you, Ken .... the picture Lynn downloaded of her and other WRAF's in the Spider's Web/NAAFI shop, is that your Kathy on the left of the picture?

Hi everyone.. I was just wondering if anyone who worked in the spiders web club knew a lady called Margaret sci-fi ? She was welsh and I'm assuming she worked there sometime between the 1945/1955?

Only just found this site and interesting reading, my dad was stationed at RAF Haydock, originally from Stockport he met my mum while stationed there, One of his jobs was the refitting or RAF Burtonwood when the Americans left. He always said it was left in a right state. His name was Bill xxxxxx and he was friends with Alecxxxxxxxxxx as a kid he would pop round to our house. I don't know exact dates of him being there but my mum and dad married in January 1963
