brian1941 Â Â 11 #529 Posted August 8, 2010 Hi flyer its me again, the bombing in sheffield although i dont remember it, but while i was in fulwood homes i was told about a bomb that had dropped behind lodge moor hospital. I dont know anythink much than that but our house mother took us boys to see the damage, it was a massive big crater. Once the grass had grown over it and when we went for picnic`s we would play in the hole, had great fun. ------------------ and whatever you have eaten just make sure its digested, we dont want any undergoing problems.

Then we had miss marshall a new house mother, i wasn`t very keen on her sumut about her. My brother was in no 2 and he got on with miss royston, as you said its luck of the draw. Oh well, but i`ve turned out o, k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

brian1941 Â Â 11 #536 Posted August 26, 2010 sorry brian going to have to ask your friends if u turned out o.k hi flyer back again after a break, that o.k regarding your last mail, i went off rails a bit when we had miss marshall as the new house mother in no 6, i just didn`t like her , and for most of the good hiddings she gave me i was part`ly to blame and i wasn`t always a good lad. << i was stubborn and cheeky >> but i did get on with the boys and we had lots of fun and laughs, but still , i was happy in the homes. The one dirty trick miss marshall the house mother did to me was, on the morning i was to leave the homes for good, the boys didn`t know. She only told me after the boys had gone to school, and then at mid - day she said there`s your bags now walk upto the office to be met by the officials. I never got the chance to say my good bye`s to my house mates and friends, that really hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
