Although a health scare meant Simon Church was unable to return from Australia to meet up with old Brigg school chums, and cricketers, at the Yarborough Hunt last night, there was still a good turn-out of people meeting up to chat over old times - even though the weather was bitterly cold.
Shaun Coulson came up specially from Portsmouth, and Simon Pottage from Peterborough.
Pictured, left to right, are Shaun Coulson, Graham Day, Simon Pottage and Nigel Beacock.
Some of those returning to town were sad to see the closure of the Brocklesby Ox, Dying Gladiator and White Horse, recalling happy nights spent in those hostelries years ago.
Simon Church intends to re-organise his trip over to Brigg for later in the year. Keep watching the Brigg Extra page in the Scunthorpe Telegraph and Brigg Blog for details.
A more comprehensive report of last night's get-together, and another picture or two, will appear in the Scunthorpe Target on Thursday.
Lucky you had your health scare in Australia Chozzie . Looking at that motley crew in the photo it's enough to give anyone a heart attack. !!
