Brougham Street, Lozells

A newspaper report about "A strange attack in Brougham St" well it made me laugh.

I remember going out briefly with a young lady (who I'd met at Rabone Chesterman, late'66/early'67) and who lived in Brougham St. I *think*/unsure/ her name was Pat, Irish, if I remember correctly. Sadly, being young and innocent, (before the testosterone kicked in) I'd said something which was misinterpreted, she told her brother and as a result, I got the old heave-ho! C'est la vie. I do wonder about her when passing that area (ah! - young love).

Jan 2015 - Found an old diary.......she was Pat Kelly @ 19 Brougham St

Hi Curly, I think Pat is my aunty, her brother, my dad, was called Denis and my mum was Betty. My grandad owned the glassworks next door to us.

Nursery Road lozells

I saw a photo of our house, which was built over the Villa St post office run by Mr and Mrs Reeves, and next door to Singl etons where they made packing crates. I can't find the photo but if anyone has this picture, I really would appreciate it being posted again.The name plate is also visible.

Hi, I think we lived next door at no 19, Denis & Betty Kelly. Think we left about 1965.

Thanks Lyn, I remember going to my granddad's glassworks next door and he always had sweets for us.
