denlin Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 mh is right I have known Barracloughs since I was a child and I was born in 1951. They have never owned the garage across from the post office, it has always been where it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mh01 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Barbara Wilkinson, Bless Her, saw her just before she moved into the residential home & used to get regular updates from her neighbour (June) who used to live across the road from her, but not seen June in ages. Who remembers Rachel? Barbara's partner in crime they were a pair together Believe Rachel used to be post lady? I know when Rachel moved into Eva Ratcliffe, she used to say ' oh it's ok but it's full of old folk' bearing in mind Rachel was in her 80s (in body but obviously not in spirit) Happy Memories of time spent with both Barbara & Rachel .............eyup lyn, i think youre referring to june knubley, formerly senior. sadly she passed away, another lovely lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
