Oliviamarie Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Goodness, I've just come across this on one of my late night googles, Leonard and Fanny Parkin are my great grandparents and my mum grew up next to them on Olive Grove Road! I'm not sure if you'll see this message but I don't suppose you still have this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio_peter Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 (edited) Yes I still have the radio and it now works. I live in Heeley near Olive Grove Road. Pete Edited June 30, 2021 by radio_peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio_peter Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 (edited) Does anyone know Oliviamarie who I am keen to contact . I have sent her a PM but no reply . Unfortunately , I did not login for 3 months so missed her message above. Her last name might be Larkin but I doubt it.
