Cecilj won a box of chocolates off him in an air rifle shoot off, I was a kid, he was a bloke at the time, very funny guy was ces, his father in law was Charlie Wardle.
……. he died recently. Annie’s still going strong.
Sad to hear about his passing, had some good times with Ces, filled with wild ideas he never fully thought through just acted upon, great guy, R. I. P Ces
In plarzy he had a pony in the wash house and cut the door in half.
He used to take craigy who was 16/17 down Harrogate in a pushchair and pretend he was disabled and collect money. “Wave at the man Craig wave at the man!!!”Sad to hear about his passing, had some good times with Ces, filled with wild ideas he never fully thought through just acted upon, great guy, R. I. P Ces
That's Ces, absolute character and funny as f*ck, I smiled earlier when I readb"Cessie richardson" he lived in my street, a few doors down, I was only a kid but even then I recognised a character when I saw one 
I just remembered, once Cecil moved out of my street Ducky Minto and Sharon moved into the house, another character.
Aye he lives up here beside our lass.
Yes. Been a while since I got any from there though. Maybe get them up there. Where ya going?
I used to get my bait from this lad in South Shields who was amazing.
Most bait diggers are on the sick mate.
This lad was like a mini digger - incredible.
near Kelso
I’m not familiar but if you are going via A1 the angel fisheries will sell maggot if ya stuck.
Got a mate in Devon, digs 6-10 Lbs of worms in a day, full time bait collector, seine nets sandeel, sells samphire to restaurants, does OK.
I used to get crab up here from a lad in Devon. In November but had to spend £250 a month with him/ her.
