Anyone remember Helen Road in Darnall?

Anyone Work At Thomas Wards In The Late 60s?
slotter47 replied to andyrad29's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
That was another interesting aspect to the journey,i think Wards had some connection to the Rootes Group and so we were given new Hillman Imps,at 6ft3ins it was quite cramped as you can imagine. -

School uniform back in the day.
slotter47 replied to slotter47's topic in Sheffield History & Expats
Mine was Stewart and Stewart armed with a list sent of all the requirements on top of the main uniform eg. house sports shirt,craft apron etc. and name tags to be made.It's only later you realise the expense put on our parents to give us a good education. -
Do you remember going for your school uniform and where you got it from back in the 50s/60s.
