Hi I’m John Gleadall, born in 1951. My sister was Susan Gleadall (1945)  and we both attended Carbrook C of E until 1960 when we moved to Hampshire..
I have enjoyed reading this thread. I remember many of the teachers names but only David Kay’s name and the Kissack family name are familiar to me now. 
someof you may remember Gleadall’s tobacconist at 673 Attercliffe Common - in fact there have been several references to the tobacconist and I’m pretty sure you are referring to Dad’s shop.

many thanks for an entertaining half hour!

My mother went to Carbrook School, though a bit earlier than this. Joan Peacock was her name. She also has a sister Hilda, brothers Malcolm, George and Geoff. I forget the name of the street...there was an old joiners workshop on the corner and it met Broughton Lane near the Bird in Hand. It may have begun with 'M' and ran opposite to Raven something street. The Twiggs lived in the same yard. Any help would be a help to but some names together, it holds good memories for me
