Sports in Oranjemund in the 70's!

[Michael Alexander]

Here are just two scans I did today , one of rugby and one of golf, do you recognise anyone?

[Malcolm Bertoni]

Recognise the second guy from the left with the sweatband - James Blakemore - if  that the correct spelling.  We played together in 71/72.

[Michael Alexander]

James? WHo was Charlie Blakemore?

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

James is Charlie's older brother.

[Michael Alexander]

Now is it just me or does this sound like  James and the giant peach ... and... Charlie and the chocolate factory...

@ Diana

Do you remember the Windhoek Hockey Tour we had such a good time. Do you remember after a night of drinking going up and down the passage turning on and off the ligts to the song of the pick pantha.  Does anyone have any pictures of that tour.

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

Hi Diana, Yes I am second from the right in front. Stephen in the red next to Mike. Was a great tour that one:-))))   

Next to you Pepe is my old mate Ian McLennan and directly behind him is a windblown John Kane. Ian was a plumber and John Kane was a sparky.

Hey John, you have a good memory. Yes you right and only now can recall them. Go well bud
