My mums in a bungalow now Mel..just off endyke lane...my sis still lives on 21st ave....across the street from where we where all brought up. My aunty shirley whose hubby had something to do with endyke club lives in the same bungalows. All the best to your mum....my dad died nearly 2 years ago... Im thinking of a Bill who lived some number between 50 - 60 he always had motorbike, often with a big bench seat sidecar.. Hoyle or something like that ,i use to call him oily.
As you know I joined up at 15 so coming home meant 33rd for me. Me Mams going to be fine, but it's me who's the daft sod who will miss the place. I bet I still tell the taxi to go to the old house when I'm pissed.
I lived at 120 21st Ave with my Grandma and Grandad. Always remember neighbours knocking on the door wanting money for their meters or trying to flog us stuff they'd bought from the catalogue and needed a large amount of ready cash quickly. Have an Aunt who has lived on 5th Ave for 55yrs. I'm seeing her and lots of other family members at Chants Ave Crem for my 58 yr old cousins funeral who died of cancer of the pancreas. Had to take a days holiday to attend.
Bloody cancer.....grrrrrr Silly thing to say Vic maybe , i hope the funeral goes ok You know what i mean....those celebrations of life services can be quite good...for a funeral anyway. Got a few relatives in the same cemetry. All the best Vic.... We lived nr the church on 21st. Couldnt believe seeing greenwood pub vanish. I use to get served in there when i was 14 1970-1971. I go see my sister about once a week on 21st melu since her hubby died Have a good day....everyday
