By the way, how many former FCH wards are you in contact with, Brian? --------------- Hi Rodney, I see the on/off people about although i've mention about the the forum, sorry they seem pre-occupied but we do talk of the past and they have there own stories. This Ronnie Hill, brothers of the other hills when i see him we have a right laugh about the homes. A few threads back i mentioned about Ronnie and that i was uncertain if he had been in the homes, well yes he had and not sure if he was in no2. Till i see him again i'll ask him, he married and devoiced my half sister which a long way back i mentioned on the threads.

flyer Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 When I left Millner was still in #3 and The Bull in 2 now I know a nasty bit of work was in #1 forget her name Unwin (munne) would know he was under her tender care ,so hard to believe they would put Bull on the girls side, someone must have had a very warped sense of humour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for Brian. I'd so much like to hear from some of my housemates. Surely most of them would still be around ...somewhere. They were the only family that I had ...same for them too, I guess.

Miss Edge always had a fag on- very heavy smoker she was. Our laws in the uk as stopped people smoking in the work off place, i'd hate to think how miss Edge would go on not been able to smoke in the house with children about. ( Health and Safety now ). I think she should have been made to go outside round the back of the toilets, better still in the coal house -- loved to have turned the key. hihi. :hihi: Edited March 8, 2012 by brian1941 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian1941 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Well done, Brian. There are quite a few names on your list who were not in my cottage that I'd forgotten. Georgie Archer was in my cottage (#9). So too was Graham Hanson who was my best friend up until his leaving. Tony Wales was also in #9. David, his brother, finished up in #9 for a little while though I have a feeling he was housed elsewhere previously. Jimmy Pickering was an older boy but he finished up in #9 for a brief period for some reason or other. At times he was allowed to take off for the weekend on his own. I recall the evening that he came 'home' and told us about the Charles Chaplin movie Limelight that he'd seen over the weekend. By the way, the Malcolm whose last name I couldn't recall previously is Malcolm Bragger. He isn't on your list. You say that John Kerry is quite sick? While it's difficult to imagine ANY of those boys as being anything else but 'young' in my memory I guess most of them would now be in their late 60's/early to mid 70's. Except for me, of course, who is still the same. ------------- Hi Rodney, If you know of any boys name you could add them to your thread, < Who knows who's looking in > did you see i have added a few more boys names, Hey, nearly 80 names.
