Residents of Arbourthorne rd

[Royston 10]

My sister susan and Ernest were childhood sweethearts,I also knew flo as she was my moms friend,I started singing with a group when I was 14 and flo took me to have some music trancribed ,I also went to school with flos daughter Noreen.

 

Hi roughy we've talked before through Friends Reunited about Susan. I didn't realise she had 'gone out' with Ernie when they were younger. At some point after that he married my cousin June Ardron (no relation to Carole Ardron off East Bank Rd), They ended up divorced so I kind of lost track.

 

Still have warm feelings about Susan even after all these years. Please feel free to pm me if you feel like it - I'd love to see an old photo of her!! Best Wishes

I left Arbourthorne Rd in about 1950

My sister and I wore school uniform of Notre Dame and my Dad was Blind

Tommy Greensmith 2 doors away from us used to fish in the pond and had maggots in his pockets. As a small child I used to sit with him on his back doorstep and contemplate the wonders of the world with Flow singing next door.

Diskin! now there's a name that brings back memories. I was born in 1941 at No.68 Fellbrig Rd. & lived there untill about 1960ish. Across the road from us was a pair of semis where two related families lived, one family was called Collins And the other Diskin. I wonder if the originator of this post is a decendant of that family!!!
