Dont know Andrew grasscutter but if he,s got a brother called Robert and his dad is called Fred then i know them cos i work with em.

Also i used to hang around on the flower estate round that time,mainly round Foxglove Rd.Used to hang with Mick Walker,Nigel Tranter,Robert Stocks...... if that rings any bells ??

 

 

Those names ring a bell to me as I'm one of them, been a long time since I thought of the people on the flower estate and a longer time since I've been back.... would be good to know who this is and I'll see if I can put a name to a face....

Hi Paul, it's Nigel and it was my mom that worked at batchelors all those years ago. I do remember you (sort of... ) and the trips that we made. I guess that you're still in Sheffield would be good to know what you've been up too and if you still Tivvy and the guys you mentioned?
