I just found a picture of part of the totem pole I mentioned on here some time ago at http://rmhh.co.uk/mliners.html There are also lots of nice pictures of Manchester docks too.

Now you've done it! You've set me off on adding to the wikipedia article on Salford Lads Club, and I've just found it could be useful as another resource for you genealogy bods. See the link I just found here. http://www.lhi.org.uk/projects_directory/projects_by_region/north_west/manchester/the_salford_lads_club_quaker_girl_bazaar/index.html

Pendleton Lads Club! Very very famous musical pilgrimage place - at the risk of going off at a tangent (who me?  ;D ;D would I do that) this is the place Morrissey & the Smiths made famous


The article talks about Salford lads Club in Ordsall, I suspect Pendleton Lads Club was a different place. :(

It shouldn't be too difficult a job to enhance the contrast and clean it up a bit. I know someone who'se pretty good with photoshop but he's away on holiday at the moment. If no-one else takes it up I'll ask him to have a look when he gets back. Do you know where it was taken?

Nah, sorry - you colonials gave up any claims to the throne when you commited the ultimate crime of throwing our tea into the sea. That was the ultimate crime and can never be forgiven.  :o :o
