Jo's First Parade
The general rule for this page is that all photographs show both Jo and Simon. This first photo breaks the rule! It shows Jo's first parade, on 17th July 1978, in Northfield. Alongside her are two other first-timers, Allan Baxter (aka Big Al) and Jimmy Hunter (aka Wee Jimmy). Eighteen years on, Allan played both outside the church and during the evening reception. Thanks Allan!
