Sorry to hear your about your Mom dying Chris. My condolences, do you know where the Beet Children, and Walter collin's are buried, I've never seen their graves, I suppose it would be Witton Cemetery. To which I am already a regular visitor.

Chris!! when was the last time you saw Reg and Glady's. ?

Thats before my time then, Though I can remember babysitting a few times. Jesus!! that house was cold first thing in the morning.

I was over there often in those days visiting, I used to go round to George Coley's in clifford street too. I was only a young teenager then.

I haven't seen any of them for a while, except for Garry, Yesterday!! I remember the house in wheeler st, very well. I didn't realize he had rellie's living over the road.
