No Worry at Stanley Ferry

 Wednesday 24th June 2026.            No Worry at Stanley Ferry.


It appears that Mark can print rather small, so below is a much larger version!!

A baking hot Wednesday greeted us for our visit to Stanley Ferry. Mark and John Howarth met at Leeds railway station and caught the 10:20 train to Doncaster. Brian was supposed to be joining us, but sadly for us he missed the train, arriving at the station just as we were pulling out of Leeds. We alighted at Sandal/ Agbrigg to be picked up in car by Glenn, who drove us to Stanley Ferry where we were met by Derek and Russ. Derek and Mark decided discretion was the better part of valour and opted to sit outside the pub avoiding the extreme heat. Russ, Glenn and John then did a very short walk and joined us at the pub. A very nice meal was had and talk turned to memories of our days at Thackrays, with some surprising revelations!. We then departed for our various homeward destinations, ending a pleasant get-together.
