If the trains are running I'll definitely try to get there.

Does anyone remember Danny Sands? He went to this school around 1953 ish.

Hi David, we moved from just around the corner (Bromford Lane) to 527 in 1953. I used to walk to and from Ryland Rd school as well, playing marbles most of the time so was often late back!

Thanks everyone for continuing this topic. Very interesting for my research into my Great Grandparents' history.

Good to hesr from you Tony. I imagine we're both enjoying our retirement now. I've lived in Banbury for the last 24 years. Where are you? By the way, David Benbow notified me that you had posted!

Hi Turnips, sorry I haven't. I bought it on ebay several years ago.

Sorry it's a bit late but thanks to Lyn for arranging the meet. Good to catch up and nice to see the new owner of The Bull has kept its' character and good food.

Yes please.

Thanks, maybe it was some type of hospital at the end of the First war.

Although it's not relevant to Birmingham, I thought I'd post this picture. Hope it doesn't break the Forum's rules . I think that the photos are interesting regarding the fashion of the day. I think they're from the 1920s. The one with the nurses has an address hand written on the back, 11...

That's right Alan, I took the photo with a wide angle lens.

Thanks Bob, just waiting for Fiona Bruce to come to Banbury. But as they all say, "Thanks for the valuation , it's not for sale." From the seller: "A vintage original 1970’s screen printed linen West Midlands Birmingham bus blind section “Bromford Lane Tyburn Road” it measures approx 22cm x...

Thanks Radiorails. Just have to convince my wife that I can frame it and hang in the office.

I was born in Bromford Lane, as were the previous 2 generations of my family, in 1946 and moved round the corner to Tyburn Road in 1953. So when I saw this on ebay I just had to buy it! An old linen bus blind. Not sure which service, maybe No. 11 or one that ran up Tyburn Road to town.

It's been some time since I uploaded a photo and have searched for such a topic but can't find one. Could someone kindly remind me how please? Thanks David

Good meet as usual, even I managed a couple of prizes. Also a good amount raised from the raffle.
