Great to see those faces again after all these years. I think you will find it was a Malcolm Jones in the group. I remember quite a few of these faces.

Good to see this photo. I know most of the people.  Jim & Tom's sister's name is Betty, she went on to be cub leader.

I had no idea that these pictures existed. Thank you Colin. Betty's husband Ken gave me a good grounding in Dingy Sailing. Since those early days Scouting has aways played a part in my life. I had intended looking up some of my old photos to pass on to the 3rd Newhaven Scout Troop for the Centenary of Scouting in 2007 but time just ran out. At the World Scout Jamboree in Chelmsford 2007, I was a manager of the large Scout Amateur Radio Station GB100J. [Willson Newhaven Scouts!]
