3. Postcard to my Gran from my mum in 1961.

4. The good ship
A scania

5. In the garden in Phoenix Avenue with our next door neighbour. I used to look after his chickens and was paid in boiled potatoes with butter.

6. Me, Chris and Bill in Jamaica, 1962.

7. School photo. One for the dartboard? I can see Crazy Mike Thomas (soon to be a fireman), Daley (my desk mate), Nidder (mad as ever), Barney and then me!

8. The lads get ready to go to Butlins. Danny McQueeney is taking the photo. Left to right: his girlfriend, Greg Wood, Gordon Benbow, Pete Houghton (he came to see us off) Deano and me. Outside Chorlton Street Bus Station; amazingly still there!

9. Boys will be boys. Recognise anyone?

10. Deano takes the pic this time. Left to right: Me, Danny Mcqueeney, Greg Wood and Benny in the chalet at Butlins. Happy despite it all.

11. My brother Paul and my beloved scooter – I pushed it for miles! Salford 1973.

12. In my bedroom in Rothwell Street, just ready for Pips. With Grandad Hook’s old double breasted jacket on. Called ‘vintage’ now!

13. Courtesy of Kelvin Briggs. His invite to Ian’s wedding.

14. The happy couple. So young – scary!

15. Kelvin, the best man, and Ian lark about. Great zoot suits!

16. The Sex Pistols at The Lesser Free Trade Hall . . . Thanks lads!

17. My Sex Pistols ticket.

18. Bury Town Hall. Twinny gets a kicking.

19. Twinny after kicking . . . with my best shirt on!

20. Around the time of our first gigs. They come back to haunt you, eh?

21. Bowdon Vale Youth Club. We were definitely finding our way now.

22. My first passport, so we could play in Belgium.

23. Me and the van on holiday on route to Benidorm. Hardly dressed for it!

24. Bloomin’ heck! This is what a couple of years in a band does to you. Love the old glam rock top.

25. The morning after the night before . . . what a mess!

26. Old Sounds interview. Our first I think?

27. European Tour again, just messing around.

28. This would have been our digs for the night. Left to right: Steve, Ian, Rob, me, Mark Reeder (an old friend) and Harry De Mac, our English sound guy, hiding in the corner.

29. The Mighty Sarg. YOU AIN’T COMIN’ IN DICKHEAD! PISS OFF!

30. Walthamstow’s Dave Pils, gets his gold watch off New Order. A great roadie!

31. Me and Terry Mason in Tractor Music in Rochdale’s re-opening.

32. Proof we used to get on! Y.M.C.A. London I think. Very smart! Steve has gone for fags!

33. No wonder the Head chased us out! He’s behind you!

34. In TJ Davidsons. Mean and moody. Great pic Kevin.
