Who’s up for a giggle with a look back at funny scenes from Sunderland and East Durham’s past.
After all, it is National Laughter Day today - in the USA at least.
To celebrate we dug out Sunderland Echo photo memories from 1965 to 2024, showing Brian Clough enjoying training, a laughter workshop in 2003 and two workmates dressed as devils 23 years ago.
There’s a Bobby Thompson event in which the ‘Little Waster’ had the audience in stitches, and a pancake race which took a hilarious twist.
We would also love you to get in touch and tell us about the nostalgia you would like to see in the Sunderland Echo.
Maybe there is a favourite pub, club or restaurant from the past that you would like us to revisit. Perhaps we could take another look at your old school or at a former workplace. Tell us more by emailing [email protected]
