Linda Theaker, Kath was Kathy Hatt, didn't you, Kath and Shirley start about same time?

I am hoping to go to see it soon, my grandmother married my grandad when she was 16 and they had 13 children. I only found about Rex recently when my cousin started researching family history. My grandmother never told any of my generation about him.

No, see above post I have added link

In June 1915 my grandmothers cousin Rex Warneford became the fist pilot in the Fleet Air Arm to shoot down a zeppelin from an aeroplane. He was awarded VC and French Legion of Honour in same day. He was killed few days later aged 23 in freak accident. He was buried with full military honours in Brompton cemetery in London http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bf/ReginaldWarnefordBrompton.jpg

Are you Lynne Kynoch? Vic was Vic Hardy and his brother John worked there too. Vic married a lass called Shilrley and there was a labourer called Kevin Hardy, no relation

Know this thread is quite old but I worked at Greaves twice, first time was in early 1970's and the whole operation I worked on (record decks and speakers) was moved to Little London Road behind Abbey Glen laundry. One of the guys was Ernest Taylor and he was still there when I went back years later. Anybody else who used to work there? I also worked with Brian Grocutt twice, once at Greaves and then at Sheffield Rebuild. Others I worked with - Lynn Kynoch, Elaine Johnson, Olwyn Coddington, Maureen Green, Tony Robertson. office girl Jackie - anyone remember labourer Wilf? Sylvia McKendry and her sister Diane, Alan Hill can't remember many more

You and Olilew must have been good swimmers:hihi::hihi:

I remember that. I was in Priestley but they only had 4 houses when I was there and our summer dresses were the colour of your house. Red/green/blue and yellow, Priestley had green

My great grandad, Thomas Steele, was a bandleader with Chapeltown Silver prize band and he had a golden trumpet. He is buried in Burncross cemetery and his headstone had a golden trumpet, sadly although the headstone is in good repair and still has the trumpet on the gold has faded over the years. I would love to see it restored to it's former glory. When I went to visit his grave I got talking to an old guy who said he used to go through the churchyard as a child and remembers seeing the golden trumpet.

Hi Steve - how's your mum? Do you remember Troggy who used to bring TV's for George to fix? He'd get broken ones from outside peoples houses (he always asked), George would fix them and then Troggy would sell them:D:D:D

My grandma used to take me there when I was very young, this would have been late fifties when she went to play tombola (bingo). I remember her buying me lime and lemon to drink and letting me play bingo. Joto might remember this as she was her grandma too.
