    OLD BIRMINGHAM PHOTOS FROM STEVEBHx

    Thank you so much for this pic Jonob. I cannot believe it is still standing. As for Windsor Street South, I didn't know that it existed. I went to Windsor Street primary school. I never seem to get the time to go and visit these streets, although I am promising myself all the time. I lived...

    fish and chip shops

    Hi Clive F Great to read your post and lovely to hear that someone remembers The Blackpool fish and chip shop. Even more so that you worked in Coleshill Street. It is rarely mentioned, so over the moon when I read your post. It was an interesting area you are right. So many happy memories...

    Bracebridge Street

    Oh so remember this cafe Lady P. A great cafe, owned by a great couple. You may remember from previous posts, that we worked for the same company, Benton & Stone. Happy days. Lovely to see the pic again. Fab. Kind regards, Sue

    In the garden 2022

    Hi Janice, Is this a Hellebore Corsican? I have had one of these for many years, it was a one off buy from a fruit shop in Sheldon. It always seemed to be the black sheep of the family. Compared to other types of Hellebores that I have, it always seemed to be sad! I always looked after it...

    Hi MWS, Thank you for your post . Unfortunately, we lived in between the two photographs and I have seen them before, yes, I think it may have been on the Birmingham Forum. Nice to see them again. One thing I did miss though was number 51 was mentioned. My aunt , uncle and cousins lived...
