Grappler Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 My dad was a builder, who could do low cost jobs (I don't mean he was a shoddy builder, I mean he would not look to make a huge profit, just enough to win the business and then move on), he did loads of work in Spital Hill area from the 70's onwards and did work for Donkey Man, did work for what eventually became the Mangla (I got cash in hand to help him paint the insides of that), and various other places. Donkey Man (Nathan?) was always very friendly to my Dad because of the work he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTeeOwls Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 was dockers run by C Fanty ? Yes! Castell I Dj'd in Dockers a few times. Castell ended up buying the house next door and knocked it through into one house. It was a proper New Jack City operation on Fox Street back in the day.
