Enjoying the works outing and look back with mirth

Does this picture dating back to the 1950s ring any bells with you?

It was sent in by Jean Dowles of Sweet Briar Crescent in Crewe, whose husband Lewis, known as Lou, is pictured.

It shows employees of Denton and Tapley Precision Tool Engineering, which was based in Edward Street Crewe.

Mrs Dowles doesn't know much about the people pictured but said that it was taken on an annual work's outing .

Look back with mirth

A NOSTALGIC look back with laughter is on sale from memories man Gordon Davies with his latest book aiming to be the ideal stocking-filler.

Retired Chronicle photographer Gordon, 76, has already achieved publishing success with six nostalgic Memory Lane Crewe books as a well as a Nantwich version and a book on the history of Crewe Alexandra.

Now he has gone for fun with a rib-tickling autobiography called Read All About It which recalls many of his amusing and bizarre moments.

Read All About It is priced £6.99 from the Chronicle office at 32-34 Victoria Street in Crewe with every copy signed by the author.
