Yes i remember them well , Mrs Austin once gave me a fishing reel that belonged to her husband and i still have it more than 50 yrs later. She lived over the top wall of our yard and was always looking out for someone to go to the shop for her .😀

Hi Jimmy I know them from number 32 but I still don’t know who had a scooter I don’t think lynne and Norma had one could it have been the lad that lived next door to them they had two girls as well I think didn’t lynne marry roger Spick 

We lived at 34,next door to the Allen's.
