Those pics from 1974 bring back many happy memories of Valley! I was lucky enough to have been a (pretty crap) student on both the Gnat and the Hunter.....but can still almost smell the Avtur and Avpin now.

Marvellous times - Valley life was pretty good as you had to make the most of it. No dual carriageway, only the Menai bridge and at least an hour to get off the island back then.

The Sandymount was our Sunday watering hole - and the Dragon Room in the OM (ahh.....Mary's legs!) a good late evening source of food after too many sherbets in the bar.

Did anyone ever end up marrying Jane-Anne.......??
