Hi Knocker, yeah same Phil Deakin I think, bloody nutter.  Remember him a lot from football with Holmewood.

Hiya Chalke, it was his eyes that made him look evil. In reality, he was a pussy, all mouth. He had the funniest of laughs though, if you heard him laughing, you'd start laughing yourself. I remember him playing football for Holmewood, he got a game when they was short. He volleyed a ball into this kids face and shouted "Rioch", could be so funny at times

Hiya Chalky, Beetle, Rat real name Philip Deakin, passed away about 6yrs ago. His older brother Dabber is still knocking about. Hiya Sammy, that's not me in the photo, looks more like Johnny Green to me. Hope everyone is healthy, Knocker

Awrite Knocker, sorry bout misidentification, s'funny,  I thought JG initially but the slightly longer hair threw me.  Fraud I'm not  so mobile these days after RTA back in 86, nor have I been anywhere since YM/02, which is more than sad but being sat all nite insteadve being able to dance at will ruins one's head (!) if kwim. 

Apart from all that I was dead pleased to come across the Inky, Bons page and to read names not heard for decades, and to  find that you're still a-Okeh. 

Keep On Bro. 

Chalky, how do old mate,  fraid I'm not too good on two anymore, nor have I been anywhere since YM/02, but was a breath of fresh to come across the Inky, Bons etc page, sparkin up a few thoughts from daze gone....
