From the left was Graham Corristine, Trevor Crossland. Afkar Hussain, and someone I can't make out. Just after the bike was Shaun Kinley, with particularly long hair for then), plus another I can't place. The last two are myself (Ian Edmundson) and James Smedley The girls are lined up opposite. You can see Christine Godding's hair quite clearly in the middle of the girls.

Police Visit

The Policeman who showed us his bike and gave us all a lecture about how evil-doers would see the inside of the Cells, presumably whisked away on the back of that mean machine. What a totally fearsome machine that wasn't! It was probably a Honda 50. It would have trouble getting up a hill with one person on it, never mind two. They knew how to strike terror into us kids. How do you evade a Honda 50 with a Policeman on it? Probably walking a little faster would do it. Greater Manchester Police eventually spent some decent money on Officer transport and the crime rate plummeted significantly.
