Hi Alan, I think Michael was there when I started and he was a co-ordinator. I recall him engaged in some kind of project that entailed recording and documenting stained glass in churches across the town. I called in at the Donnison School last week and met an ex-WHCG colleague who I hadn't seen for 25 years! If that wasn't scary enough, someone showed me a photograph of us all together in the office, which was located in the former St Mary's Primary School (then part of Sunderland Polytechnic). Of course, the building was originally an infirmary and I think it might have later had a lease of life as some kind of Catholic seminary. Regards... David Allan. ----- Original Message ----- From: <alan-vickers@lineone.net> To: <ENG-DUR-SUNDERLAND-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 21, 2009 6:04 PM Subject: Re: [ENG-DUR-SUNDERLAND] Wearside Historic Churches Group > > Hi David - many thanks for the background information on WHCG.
