Hello Tosh. The Andrews took over the house after we left. I remember the Cantrells very well, Josie was about my age and Ross was about the same age as my younger brother. I've not been back to Forster Road since my younger brother died in 1998 - didn't recognize it so left very quickly to keep my memories intact. We didn't have a lot of money but we certainly had fun!

brandygirl Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi Brandygirl, I remember that a Maureen Hartley & either her husband or brother worked for Taggy from the 1950s, she lived on Midhill Rd. I do not know Maureen's married name. Edith was Ernest Battles wife, it was she who cooked the Sunday dinner for the family and employees. Cynthia, East of Toronto, Ontario. I can remember the name, Maureen Hartley, but not the face (either old age or senility, not sure which!). I know there was also another girl who worked the vans at the same time as me, her name was, I think, Nora, but can't remember her last name either. Gee! And until last year, I was in Toronto!

Yellowrose Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Could just eat a Taggy's. When I used to stay at my boyfriends, subsequently my husband, in the late 70s I always had a Taggy's - chocolate sandwich with a flake in it. Its true, I never tasted ice cream like it. I am trying to remember when I had the last one ... would have been between 78 and 80 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Andrews were a Salvation army clan & the Cantrells were very nice people.The eldest Andrews daughter lived on the top right hand side looking down of Boynton Street & lost a baby in a fire, it was a tradegy.I have not been back to Heeley since around 1990 & me & my kid brother drove through & I am the same I have my memories of Heeley in my head.Great days.

troubledjoe Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 When i was a kid a "Taggy's" ice cream van used to stop outside my grandma's every saturday. It was the best ice cream ever and tasted like nothing i'd had before or since. Does anybody else remember this?? And is it still available please?

Missdan Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Yes I remember, the shop and the house where they made it. It was lovely ice cream, todays is just like water, sadly it's all gone now, the shop and the house demolished and I think the recipe died with taggy himself.
