Anyone from Attercliffe 1961/68 who knew John and Alan Smith

Recommended Posts

marilyn lived opposite me on rotherham st she was a couple of years older than me her mother was called shelia they came to live just round corner from me at ecclesfield i knew marilyns relation ron christ he was a big friend of my cousin john sears he came off fell rd

 

Fell Rd was the one next to Whitworth Lane wasn't it? Did you go to Coleridge Rd too or did you move to Hadfield House Lane? My next door neighbour (and still my friend) Pat Langstaff had to go to Hadfield House Lane (she's about 59 now). 2 other names I remember from your side of Attercliffe Common is Michael Healey and Terence Pashley.

I don't remember the motor bike remember my dad had a ford Anglia we had a green house in the back yard which Raymond hall put his grass snake in the bloody thing escaped into our house and my mum was confronted by it inthe kitchen when jeff got back from the attercliffe rads club he pasted it with the bloody poker and told Raymond that it had escaped

Great days down the cliffe truly missed
