Jill Bayles Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 Her names Shirley Drury---brothers name Jimmy--from middlesbrough Thats the one
Guest Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I remember this girl well. She appeared at Wigan in the late seventies. I had by now become bored of Wigan as in my eyes it was going down the pan. The Bradford crowd I hung around with had started to try other venues like Rotheram Clifton Hall although nothing compared to Wigan in it's hayday. I didn't go while 1975 but by the end of 77 it had had it. Hope I don't offend anyone but I think it went on too long. Simon from Dewsbury
Guest Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) Her names Shirley Drury---brothers name Jimmy--from middlesbrough Yes, from Middlesbrough. Knew her brother Jimmy. She only went once or twice specifically for the dancing compo. She did gymnastics. Later she did join a circus and also was in the papers for an association with David Essex if my memory serves me right. No accounting for taste is there. Edited October 22, 2009 by The Joker

Ian, the girl at Brid is called Judy she is from or lives in Nth Yorks and was with Colin and his lad Cris and girlfriend at Brid. I was told that she was the same girl that was on the CD cover, will ask her when I see her next. They did go to Kingsway Hall Mansfield quite a lot. Paul
Casper Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 hi there the pic of the young lady in the black n white pic is definitely Judy ive spoke to her about it and she told me herself that it is her you could compare the two pics....then you will see for your self that they are the same person. KTF Susan (Mrs Casper)
Wally Francis Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 Yes, from Middlesbrough. Knew her brother Jimmy. She only went once or twice specifically for the dancing compo. She did gymnastics. Later she did join a circus and also was in the papers for an association with David Essex if my memory serves me right. No accounting for taste is there. Partly correct, it was her younger sister Susan who was supposed to have had a fling with David Essex. Shirley joined a travelling show and was a contortionist, bending herself into little boxes etc. I was talking to her brother Jimmy only a couple of week's ago.
Guest Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 I don't know her name either but I'm sure I've seen her brothers out and about apparently her old man was a regular at Cleethorpes. Think I've got a photo somewhere, let's see. Oh yes, here it is:
NEV Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 Gotta be from Boro Most of the birds from Smoggyland can do the splits And there were a canny amount of Boro girls at Wigan in the late 70's
