Whilst reseaching family history and looking for old photos . I have come across photos of Merlins at Ranelagh, Tamesis, Littlehampton and I think Rye , I guess they are around 1960. There are pictures of very young Brian Southcott, Brian Saffery Cooper, Robert Harris, Beri Ritchie and Alan Warren, I think these were all at Putney. They are not great pictures but if anybody is interested I will email them over. Happy Days playing with Merlins, Francis Boff |
Difficult to believe that any of those named were ever young so I would like to see the pictures ! [email protected] |
Could I put them on the Ranelagh pages with the other old photos there? |
Nick, of course send me your email and I will let you have them. Francis |
Hi Francis, http://www.ranelagh-sc.co.uk/merlinphotos.htm |
I'll have some guesses~: |
A real trip down memory lane, I am sure the previous poster is correct, the other two I can identify are Brian Saffery-Cooper and Daphne Ward sailing together and a very suave looking Derek King. |
And thats me crewing for Alan Warren. Note the sexy sailing kit! |
Fantastic pictures,Francis. Is that you in the duffle coat? |
Is the middle row R end a rather blurry Mervyn Allen? 2nd from L could be John Stokes |
The two photos you refer to are Berry Ritchie in the glasses crewed by Carol and Brian Saffery-Cooper crewed by Daphne Ward |
JC ...didn't we all think we were smart, pity I have long since lost it!! |
