Well skippy I may be wrong but as I say before 1960. I'm certain it sas plain old Shirecliffe School ..... when it changed to SSMS we had to wear uniforms this would be around 62 or 63.

I bought a Stovax multi burner £750 plus I fitted a 150mm liner down chimney that was another £250, then I spent most of summer chopping wood up,and don't forget your only heating one room, in my opinion a waste of money, I TOOK IT OUT AND SOLD IT ON E BAY. I did buy a sack of coke when I first bought it, £8 it lasted four days,work the cost of that out per annum.

I go there three times a year, I stay north side but the Cities, Sheff Roth etc have moved a load of unemployed, there they stay in the run down properties supping cans with raggs over the windows for curtains, shoplifters and beggars galore,hey buddy can you spare a dime.

Yep/ I went 1960 to 1964, teachers there said I'd never make owt in life, well they were right!!!. changed it's name from Shirecliffe School, to Shirecliffe Secondary Modern school,around 1963, I remember the school then had one coloured girl.

Buffalo Bill and his troup came to Owlerton Meadows in 1910, got off at Wadsley Bridge Station.

Yeah I remember the hole in the wall, just 100yds the other side of the arches,Attercliffe side, what about the Lodge at the bottom of Spital Hill, in later years it became Smiths motorbike shop,I bought a Triumph there in 71, don't know when it shut as a pub though The building is still up

Count Ballie in at the next meetin, Forty foot reopens on Thursday 28th July nice ta see Terry in Railway last week, see you soon T C for a chinwag of old times, lot to talk about.

My mother in law moved into number 71 HOLGATE ROAD in 1948 and the house was newly built, she lived there untill 2003

Ask one of the lads that drive the wagons, with the grab on the back, they may do it for a price, diggin privet can be a nightmare with the roots, then you need to get rid of it as well very hard work.

I passed years ago I thought it was a money making racket, 80% of the questions were ridiculous, like if you have rodents on site do you a, take a large cat to work b, take a small amount of food c, send for the council enviroment this was just one of the questions at the test.

yep remember it well, I was a rocker I'm afraid remember the Ship well in 66 had scooters down skeggy seafront one side and bikes the other, and the coppers down the middle of the road . brill times for the 16 year olds, Im bloody 62 now but stiil 16 in mi head L O L

you can hire a small excavator they used to be £180 a day with operator, much less just to hire the machine, but even the small one and half tonners are very powerfull in the wrong hands, try Hamiltons at attercliffe.

billandben/ I knocked around and went to school with Ken Barton who died a few years ago.

Just Phoned the Tyrwhitt Arms at Short Ferry 9 15 am june 10th AND spoke to the landlady, she has had numerous calls regarding Ray Morgan, also cards of sypathy, THE MAN IS STILL VERY MUCH ALIVE AND WELL
