GillyMorag   10 #64 Posted September 28, 2018 Yes she is, I also went to Tinsley Infants but I am 18 months older than her.  Mr.Openshaw was the head at the junior school with Mrs, Hazel, Mr.Savage and 'scary' Miss Kirk. Susan was very 'bold' as a 10yr old...she answered adults back! Unheard of then! Hope she's doing well and enjoying life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

GillyMorag   10 #66 Posted November 12, 2018 Lived in Tinsley until 1972, spent many an happy hour on the 'rec'. Remember the old Plumpers pub before it and and lot of the local houses were knocked down. My grandmother lived on Plumpers road before it was demolished, she used to tell me of the times she baby-sat Gordon Banks (the ex england goalkeeper). Had great fun when the viaduct was built, karting and playing football in the underpass, lots to explore - like the time me, Paul Radford and Martin Jarvis got inside the lower deck and went from one end to the other. Luckily we found a torch near the entrance as it was needed. I remember quite a few of the names mentioned in this post. Happy days!!  Eyup Johnsworld, I lived on Plumpers road as did my mother and grandparents before me. What was your grandma's name? I recognised the 2 boys names tou mentioned in your quote, I think they went to the Catholic school, but they used to 'hang out' on t'rec....great days!

He ran his business from Sheffield road, across the road from Dundas road. His company was called Eccles and co.
