We are featuring this particular party because we have just received this photo from Trevor Goody - now living in Perthshire - enjoying his day with friends in Bullhead Road. Thanks to Trevor for his photo - maybe you have a personal memory of your VE Day?

Look out for a new Plaque dedicated to Paul Welsh next to the bench at the entrance to Tescos. Paul was responsible for all the film plaques around town, so it is only fitting he has his very own now. It tells his story of a local lad who saved the studios and became a foremost authority on films.
