Roofers who taught Kingstanding to swim

Gordon was a good friend, we worked together as roofers in the sixties, all of us joined Kingstanding swimming club including Joe Adcock (Sidcup Road), Michael (Muffin) Murphy, Don Bustin, and others, all roofers. We had swimming Galas and taught kids and grownups to swim, we would then pop in next door to ex-service club, and finally the Welcome fish and chip shop on Kingstanding Road. On Sundays we would go to the Lido in Sutton with our kids or Blackroot pool in sutton park. (not recommended ). Sheila was a lovely character who like me loved jazz, We would go to the Odeon New Street to see Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson Trio, Nat King Cole Etc.
