And that IS the top of Stocksbridge, so I'm not sure why the expletive "No!!!!"

My o/h remembers meeting a bloke called Barney who he says looked like a japenese sniper and another bloke nicknamed Bluto he thought it was because he looked like bluto from popeye but he really has got a blue toe!!

I bought a new house in clough wood view in 1969,and built some gate posts with grind stones set in them and they are still there .I worked id that area most of my life,I used to go to the shoulder of mutton with Ken and Sylvia and knew Cyril at the travs.I used to be good friends with Harry Hill up jawbones hill and looked after his milking machine,I had many happy times in my 15 yrs there but looking at it now iwouldnt go back its not the place it was.

I'm sure I must know you, when did you leave Clough Wood View?

It's still OK but there's far too many new comers that think they own the

place.

Barney used to live next door to me, and Bluto has the caravan opposite to us in Skeg Vegas

OK , give us a clue . Which side of the road did you live on, the

odds or the even?

I know Barney but I'm recking my brain thinking who is Bluto?

[bullerboY 10]

Drove on there today to the mother-in-laws, I saw the stone grinding wheels

you spoke of. The people who maybe bought off you also had bikes, always

dress in black leather.

So as the neighbours got rid of one biker, they acquired another two.
