I've actually seen this a few times and thought he looked familiar but wouldn't have remembered his name without you saying it! Just trying to remember exactly how I knew him. I know I know him but can't pinpoint exactly how. Can you remember where he lived on Heeley? .... Just found out he was in the same class as my sister! Was his sister called Susan? He lived on Holland road as you go from Asline about half way up on the left. I think his sister was called Leslie who I seem to think was a WPC? Could be wrong. I remember Eric's dad worked for Frank Phillips Skips. I did see Eric some years ago also driving a skip waggon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkieontheTyne Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Just wimbling through the various topics on this forum to alleviate COVID boredom. I lived at 36 Glover Road from 62 to 66. Went to Lowfield school, well, it was at the bottom of the road. There was a corner shop halfway down at Gifford Road. Seem to recall it was run by Mrs Wareing. Excellent chippy opposite the school. Anyone remember the school dentist? Terrified me. Went to Boys Brigade at Brunswick Trinity Methodist church. Seem to remember a very good bakery, opposite Fine Fare. Travelled for a day trip to Belle Vue from Heeley station. Unfortunately the smoke and soot in the atmosphere didn’t agree with my lungs and suffered with respiratory trouble all the time we lived there. Happy days, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
