I was born on the manor back in 1975 and lived there for some 18 years. I recognise most of the names in this thread. No doubt the children of those of you peeps that made the manor a great place to grow up on. Hodgsons, Petticans, Renshaws and Smedley's were all common place names when i was a wee nipper.

 

The only person missing from my time is Troggy. He may have been a scruffy old so and so but he never hurt a fly that i knew of.

Hi,there,johnny p,nice to know you.I knew TINA quite well,as all us kids on the street,often all played a lot of the st.games together--kickcan,hide-n-seek,skipping,knock-o-nine doors etc.great fun. How has life treated your sister and family?,i believe she is quite a bit older than you,if my memory is correct.Didn't she go to NOTRE DAME?as did my sister EILEEN.I am living in CANADA,close to VANCOUVER.Which part of SCOTLAND are you living in?My name is arthur suter,e-mail is sooty4@shaw.ca.Look forward to hearing from you.Bye for now eightlegger.
