The Swanee Minstrels – Hastings late 1940 ‘s

supplied by Rod Evans

All from Clive Vale Secondary Modern School, Githa Road. Rod is 3rd from the right.

Matt Thomas… My dad went here, he was born in 1935 though so don’t think it’s same age group

Peter Fairless… School uniform was different in those days, then?

John Mcewen… I remember that floor!

Dave Nattress… You know I used to suffer the Black and White Minstrels on TV – suffer I say, as parents liked it – all sort of innocent in a way. And this, fab. photo of it’s time and a great memento etc. But, and I’m not over PC but mindful of how things have changed, this photo does make you think!!!
