Yes had friends there. Unfortunately they said the same. The Tavern wasn't good. Even Coleshill has gone down. Used to go on a pub crawl in Coleshill. Sad really, I think The Centurion is still going.

Remember CW being built. It was all bluebells.

Slow, it's been going on over 10 yrs at least. It's North Solihull. Have relatives moved out of The Wood. Now under Fordbrige, think they have won the lottery. I went to Fordbrige infants, still in touch with a mate from the age of 4. Never know where you will end up.

I was baptised there lol.Dont know why, I had a newspaper round. The sports Argus around Silver birch rd. I lived in Meriden Drive.

The shops still haven't been rebuilt. Punch bowl now houses so no pubs. I loved growing up in Kingshurst then. Left late 80s, no regrets. Always part of me as being from Brummie ancestors.

Wow Moss electrics, spot on. Remember them closing down. I bought all the vinyl singles that were sold off. Good times then.Bookies Corrigan's, used to stand outside when younger. Get someone to put a bet on my dad when he was ill.
