sixsigma Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 i remember miss whitley i hated her and i remember mrs lowe and mr stevens By you've got a good memory, other things I remember are: Silent film shows at christmas Rounders in the playground and a competition at Abbeydale School A shop we made out of empty boxes and cans in one of the clasrooms. playing the triangle when we had music ( I never got to play the drum) Dancing - only one i can remember is the Tarentella and The school christmas Navity play - I played an Innkeeper and can even remember my line - I have no room, there is no room (eat your heart out Mel Gibson). But what about the pubs, my parents used to frequent the Wheatsheaf and Stag, I think the buildings are still there but are used for other things. I had a couple of mates round there Alan Gleeson and Brian Allen. Also in those days of course phone were few and far between, I can remember having to walk from Manners Street to the railway bridge near the Stag to use a phone.

ozlad Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Manners St was at the bottom of Rutland Rd, under the Railway Bridge and sharp right. It followed the rail embankment. A quick glance at Google Earth indicates that it is still there, but the sumptious houses that we all lived in are of course long gone. I was also in the Nativity play, as a little angel, a photo exists of me looking a lot cuter that I do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
