pat and cat 18 Posted August 18, 2009 Skip from Wolverhampton says my bro'. He's Dave Urmston by the way, just in case you remember him too. Please may I ask which of the two girls is you? The one on the left looks a bit like someone I know from Stockport. It couldn't by any chance be you Jan, could it? Chris
purist 316 Posted August 19, 2009 There were 2 Skip's from Wolves. Big Skip and Little Skip was how we knew them, they were brothers and obviously Big Skip was the eldest. Pretty sure this is Big Skip, but its so many years ago I couldn't be sure. I always thought he was one of the coolest, best dressed, most stylish blokes around in those days. Think he may have been the first person I ever saw in a full length leather coat ? When I asked where he'd had some item of clothing from, I think it may have been him who told me to go over to see a guy in the east mids (notts maybe ?)that was making great clothes at the time, and a few soulies were going there for their one off & made to measure stuff. I cant remember clearly enough, but I presume its the guy who is now a big name designer? Paul Smith? anybody remember for sure ? Cant remember now whether they were aussies, or english but had been living in oz for years ? hence the nicknames, Maybe somebody will remember, did they go back to OZ ?
Gilly 1,243 Posted August 24, 2009 cant be sure but for what its worth the guy with the black t shirt on in the background looks like Dave Gillanders from Derby an old friend of mine he was around shortly before i started doing niters. By the way great photos, would love to see more from around this era. All the best Gilly(male) from Derby/Burton.
