It's surprising you didn't bump into us, Gwen has been unwell lately she's had a bad stroke, her ex Husband Jack Manning was the first person I knew to pass away due to Covid. Henry's place was on the same road as us in Arroyo. Edited November 15, 2021 by Alextopman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Hairy wasn't big, but was a handful, especially with the old nut. Shame what happened to him but was always likely. I knew all the Emsons. Can remember Paul (rhino) kicking the #### out of hairy in their back garden when we were kids. Was once in a car with hairy when he pulled out a gun, looked like a luger, couldn't believe my eyes. Think there was some lads from down south looking for him at the time. Just come across this post, you'll know my mum then, Jane? She always said Uncle Rhino was the one you didn't want to have a fight in a ring with, but uncle hairy would just nut you haha. I was only young when he died, but I like reading up and hearing stories about him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I also knew your other Relations off the Batemoor estate, Brian Emson and his son David. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I knew Jane too, but not like I knew the boys. Been out on the town with all of them, mostly Gary. I went on Gary's 21st with him to Turnups. I left for pastures new in 1989. If I'm near City road cematary, I pop over to Mark's grave for a few minutes to remember the past. I've looked for Gary's (who I believe also died a few years ago) grave but had no luck so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Yeah Uncle Gaz died a few year back, he was cremated and we've buried his Ashes on uncle Marks grave, so you'll have been there without even realising. We need to get a proper headstone for the plot really, my Nan mark and gaz are all buried there Edited June 12, 2023 by JimstonSWFC spelling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
