Christmas And New Year 1960s
From: ArticlesHere are 4 pictures three from 1969 and one we are not sure about .
The one we aren’t sure about is the photo given to us by Pat France from Bob France’s personal photos , we have Bob France and Pat France, John Davis and Norman Halliwell with wives we presume but not sure about the others , the event is a new years eve do at the station an occurrence each and every year to which I was part of for a few years at the start of my career, my first one 1983, I was duty man andĀ a designated coach driver taking home anyone who wished for a taxi with several trips around Blackburn and Darwen . The chief fire officer was given a table and was usually in attendance. The New years social carried on for a few more years until after some bad feeling was discontinued.
The other pictures are borrowed from the Lancashire Telegraph one of the kids parties which again were an annual event carrying on whilst at the old station on Byrom station until about 2012 , I think we tried in the new station but difficult due to space and eventually lack of interest, the last one is of a new years socialĀ , we recognise Bill Williams who would have been celebrating his second year as Chief fire officer at Blackburn
If you know any more about any of the pictures at have any of your own please let us know thanks
