Re the picture of a boy on a bike just posted on the main site. I am fairly sure the boy is Reg Upson (Upton)? and the shop behind him on the corner of Upper Webster/Parliament Street was run by Cissie McHugh.
Patsi...have you visited www.astonbrook-through-astonmanor.co.uk , I am sure that the photo in question is on that website somewhere, I do have it on my friends reunited page, but since they have changed the layout, I am now unable to find it....
I can recall helping a mate of mine work in one of the back of houses in Upper Webster Street, around 1967/68, and what sticks out in my memory was that the boxroom, was covered in Beatles photo's or wallpaper, I lived in Clarendon St from 1953 till 1969 and was the local paper boy and I didn't know that these house where there until then.....
I'm that eldest daughter Patsi was talking about and I'm still a Beatles fan! This site is bringing back some memories!
Hello,Cissie Mchugh was my Auntie. I remember her shop. It was my Grandmothers before Cissie took it over. Aunty Ethel recently passed away aged 101 or 102. Love to hear from anyone who remembers the Mchugh's
