tigerman Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I saw the youtube vids and they were great. Its sad though, theres a lot of memories being flattened there and even though I havent lived there since I was about 20, I still dread the day when I learn that the house I was born and brought up in on Holgate avenue is going to be demolished. I THINK I KNOW YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerman Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Peggsta, Awfully sorry to hear about your dad. I knew him vaguely, but my elder brothers, who were the same age as Mick (they're twins) knew him quite well. I'll ask them if they've got any stories about him dont tell him too much get in touch with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerman Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I've narrowed you down to one of these three: Tony Kane, Johnny Fountain, Graham Hoole Pete Lee, who had a dog called “Bengo” (see earlier posts on this thread) was a decent cyclist but his heart wasn’t in it as much as the others. I think he was a little bit older and consequently less reckless. He did have one claim to fame though. He lived closest to the track. Jonathan Edwards could have leapt from their porch on to the top bend in one fell swoop. And his mum worked at Margo Chippy. Always a good thing As I mentioned earlier, I don’t really remember Steve Cam, but I presume he was an elder sibling to Kath and Tony Cam. Kath was a hippie, in spirit if not in dress, and was very much into Jonie Mitchell and CSN and Y. She and I used to discuss the acts on “The Old Grey String Vest” for hours. I had a C60, taped from the telly, of John Prine singing “Sam Stone” which we listened to over and over. The song still gives me shivers. Tony married a lovely girl off Wordwsworth (Vivian?), few houses up from Wriggo’s. (401 at a guess) Tom Roebuck was a decent cyslist, but he was one of the last ones to convert from a 48:26 ratio to the "in-favour" 32:18, and it did him no favours as it led to much less explosive gate. He was also slow to straighten out his forks. He joined the Royal Signals in about 1972. He served for three years as a Data Telegraphist in Northern Germany (Herford I think - maybe Bielefeld) but didn’t feel that he could make a career of it, and came back home. Last time I saw him was in March 1976 selling Seafoods from a basket in the pubs. By the time he got to “The Gate” at Wadsley Bridge, he’d run out of mussels but still had a few whelks left, so I bought a packet. Had to put loads of vinegar on, but they were lovely I WAS ONE OF THE THREE YOU SAID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
