Cosgrove

waswigg

proper brummie kid
I used to live opposite the Cosgrove Family in Sheep Street, Gosta Green i can remember my sister Marie going over there to see Barbara.
Great music always being played. Then I was to young to appreciate it ,later in life I was wearing Ted gear and I loved it . Now I am 68 I don't wear it after a stroke.It's still in my wardrobe. Barbara had a brother called Bomber (never knew his proper name) We went up to see them when they moved to Stetchford, Marie lives in Wales and live in Somerset. dad died in 1989 and mom passed not long ago.
Still like to see how they all are
 
Hi Waswigg,

I wonder if it was 'your' Cosgroves who had the shop in Station Road Stechford
in the 1950s/60s.
Memory isn't what it was but I seem to remember they were a general store, and sold
newspapers.

Kind regards
Dave
