skippy   11 #1988 Posted December 5, 2019 Gday Bygum, the fires are quite a long way from us, we are fortunate to be away from the forest's, so all we are getting is dust from a new housing estate on one side, and a new motorway on the otherside. I don't usually come on here thesedays, I go on the Grimesthorpe thread on Facebook. Hope you ll have a Great Christmas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I've not been on here for years, some of the old posters must have moved on to the "Grimey in the Sky" like my baby brother Philip Anyone help me with the missing names above Hello everybody. I am one of the people mentioned above. (VH). I lived on the prefabs. I used the steps at the bottom of Margate Drive to go to Owler Lane Intos School every day. I belonged to the youth club at Grimesthorpe Methodist Church, was on the committee, and was a Sunday School teacher, and Sunday School Queen. Brian Duty was the person who died, he was about 19, I think. He lived just a few doors from me, and died an awful death. John Downward lived on Grimesthorpe Road, not far from the bottom of Margate Drive. -. he married Valerie Duffield, who lived on the prefabs. I used to be on here as Cornish Rose, but I forgot my password..!  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
