There are two pages of pictures. One picture shows the audience and she is named.

Page 2 #8. She was known as Big Anthea, quite a tall lady. Jenny said they ran the Troubadout together.

Ah, thanks. Got her.

No, I don't think she was there by 1958 when I left the area; by when Jenny was still just a listener in the main. A claim to fame I can make, I recall, is seeing this girl sitting alone & listening for two or three evenings running, & my catching her eye and taking it on myself to say on behalf of the "floorsingers & singers' friends and groupies" group, as it were, "You look lonely, why not come & join us?". So she moved over to sit with Gordon Potts and me and one or two others, and we asked her name and she said "Jenny Barton".

Funny thing, memory. Give it a tickle and what comes flooding back!
