LindaandKarl Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Hi, Babsy - yes, Christine Kipling sounds familiar. She lived next door to us. My dad -Len - had a motorbike - a BSA as I remember - remember riding pillion with - of course - no helmet, nothing to hold on to and nowhere to put my feet - from the age of four or five. Those were the days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack49 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Hi LindaandKarl, I left 57 in 1967 to join RAF, my sister was born there in 55, my grandad died there as did my dad in 84. My mother lived there until they pulled it down in the 90's. Stuart Mackenzie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert T Smith Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I lived at 137 Windy house Lane until 1946. I attended Stand House Junior and was in the St Swithuns' Church Choir. During the war years I remember going to a house where I understood 'Jacobite's or Recabite's' lived. What they were and I don't think I'll ever know!! The Manor Community Association on City Road put on operatic shows and at the Salvation Army Near Fredson Road, I'd often get a Baked Potato. Not much, but a lot when you lived in a house where the Gas and Electric had been cut off for not paying the bill!! Anyone else from the bottom of Windy house on the Forum? Hewitt -Star - Denton - Eastwood - Gears - Cryer - Or the Cop. He who often gave me a clout for being naughty and sometimes told my mother to send me to bed and not let me outside until he came next day so I could apologies to him. My father was away fighting in the War as were many, many others. So a lot of my generation came from One Parent families but with out todays Social provisions. (What would people make of that these days if it happened?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
