9 photos to remind you of how Wearside looked in 1988 - from a snooker marathon to long-distance walkers

Who remembers the day they did a 24-hour snooker marathon in Roker?

How about the year when Southmoor School packed in two stage plays? Both events were captured on camera by Sunderland Echo photographers and we have the proof.

We also have a reminder of the non-uniform day at East Herrington Primary School and the Washington factory workers who staged their own clothes show.

It all happened in 1988 so join us as we step back in time.
