Unknown Photographs

Not sure what these photographs are or from what year so any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!  If someone can tell me the year or anything more about them I’ll move them to the appropriate section. Names would be really useful to add.

Strange swimming event...
“Strange swimming event” was known as The Greasy Pole.  Anyone brave or foolhardy enough to try it was required to attempt to navigate their way from the poolside along the pole which had been greased and either remove from or place a peg at the other end of the pole without coming to grief and ending up in the pool.   Needless to say, many tried but few succeeded.

    Unknown Display 1 shows the original School Blazer before it was changed to the Navy one (not sure when) and had the same colours as the now OFA tie. Lowman’s Outfitters which used to be on Cheap Street opposite the Post Office were the principle suppliers. I still have an original OFA silk tie given to me by Mr Lowman who was out next door neighbour on Coldharbour way back in the 1960’s.
