Ive spoken to Christine on the phone. She remembers Sundays at your mums. She says hello and hopes you are well. I remember Ruby Ashers hairdressers. My mum used to go there sometimes. We had some good shops at one time didnt we. you could get anything you needed without leaving the area.

Does anyone remember the name of a teacher at Grimesthorpe school? He rewarded you with sweets(mainly liquorice torpedoes)If your work was good. Been racking my brains and asking members of my family to no avail. Help.... its driving me insane.

Hi. ive been to see Christine today. I will say hello to her for you. you will have to tell me who you are. im getting confused with the different names. We never had papers delivered to our house. I always had the job of fetching the Star every teatime and the paper on Sunday mornings. Although I had a paper round myself at one point. I worked for Heaths. They had the pokey Little shop. Next to Ashers butchers if memory serves me well. Roveress...

I see Christine or at least speak to her on the phone every week. She no longer works at the Northern General as the Library service has finished.Christine informs me David Beamont passed away in march 2007.

Yes to everything. The name Faith isnt common so you must be Faith Dickinson. Im Lynne the youngest. Yes everyone seemed to play in our backyard. It was always our house too when the weather was bad. Happy days.

No not far. They havnt been there long. Only moved from Robey Street though.

Your name rings a bell. are you one of the Rawsons from Birdwell Road?

David is my other brother.

HI. Alison married Joe Clegg and had 2 sons. Sadly Joe died. Do you remember us Darwins? Alison has been married to my oldest brother Gordon for the last 8 years. They live at Sheffield Lane Top now.

Just read your message. John Davies is my cousin.He has 2 older brothers. Harry and terry, and 2 younger sisters Barbera and Susan

Used to go in on Saturday Dinner to pick up my wages. Used to put some of my wages back behind the bar. Seemed to get drunk quicker at dinner times. Wierd really. Remember having to get permision to have a drink. The rules were, if you worked there you couldnt drink in there.

Used to go on trips with the Grimesthorpe Club. I remember having to wear a name tag. If i remember rightly the tags were like the ones you see in the films with the evacuees. It was so exciting when they came round with the tickets for the rides. we got money aswel. 10 bob i think. Brilliant...
