ooisit   10 #179 Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) How old is the Tony Lowe you're on about nerosun?  Tony lives on Woodseats and drinks in Lloyds in town every Monday and Friday lunchtime with Mick Kendal and Billy Fidler, he was 70 last year. Tony has always knocked about on London Road and in town he used to drink in the bottom of the lane Norfolk arms dixon lane with Steve Lowry, Geoff Caley, Mick Kendal, Walt Deplage and all the other steel erectors that went in there.
