BARNSEY Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thats right Lyn, i remember Susan and Gary. Who was your best friend at school then Lyn? and yours Harry?. Harry do you remember Craig Douglas?. i would be about 7 or 8 i think, he got hit by a car and killed i remember the teacher telling us all about it at school,think it happened on Newhall road. Craig was in our class. I seem to remember that Robert Becks brother did have some kind of health problem though. Robert lived on Clay Street too. I do remember a boy being killed( and mentioned at school) but had forgotten his name. I think Craig used to live off the common round the corner from clay street, was there an undertakers there? I think I went to his house a few times. anyway best friends, mmm cetainly Steve Howe, Dave Malia and a guy called Mick Downes who lived up Old Hall Road. Keith Hall I knew quite well and Jono of course from the year below. Just thought of another girl who lived close by Chrisitine Judge, was she in our class Lynda? What was the name of the cafe with the pin ball machines at the top of Newhal Road, across from the baths? Diana Senior I also remember now, wasn't she a good friend of Jean Hobsons? Did you ever make a guy for bonfire night and stand outside the pubs aking for a penny, i once got 2 and 6 from a drunk. Also had a few paper rounds, when I got older and worked on Saturdays in an upholsterers for a few bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to admire your memory Jono, yep Peter Gibson, well I never. I used to play chess with him and knock about with a 'Hells Angel', geezer who also lived in Gibbos yard. Bet you don't know his name Jono? Peter got a job as a grinder somewhere in town when he was 15. God this thread is stirring long forgotton memories.

linnet52 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 I remember Christine Judge. Steve Howe had a sister i think Harry, i know the cafe you mention but cant remember the name. Certainly remember bonfire nights standing outside the Tram car pub with the guy, some of the drunks could be quite generous. Do you remember Irene Coleman Harry she was in our class.

lynblu Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi Lyn. I remember Cheyanne. we must have made that blokes life a misery not maliciously but just being a nuisance, no-one else in the yard seemed to bother but he was a man on a mission! We were like greased lightnin, sliding down tip n then straight down entry wi-out being seen. We should be so lucky, he must've had a built in radar, he was out that back door like Jack Flash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
