Description

An article published in February 1977 in Laing's monthly newsletter 'Team Spirit' records that entertainment was provided by 'Uncle Fred', children's entertainer Frederick Barlow, and his wife 'Auntie April' who had performed for 25 years at every Laing sports club children's Christmas party held at Mill Hill.. They were presented with a long-service award of a silver tray.
