vickb Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 My grandad used to work a twist drill his name was Maurice Baxter. He met my grandma there her name was Rose Ware. I can remember them telling me tales of a guy called 'little Billy' they used to pick him up and hang him by his coller onto coat hooks and cover him with a coat for a joke. Does anyone recall any of these names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
