Thanks for reply Roger sadly he passed away in March aged 93 but i loved the his stories from Newmans he retired from Ingersoll R.. in Bescot he sometimes went into Walsall FC on dinner breaks for a quick pint with mates. When he worked in Lower Tower St i worked at the top in Universal Jig / Gauge as a surface grinder, remember going to see him at work in Hospital St also. Dad at age 14 became Job estimator at Cannings done his National service in the RAF at Strubby up in Lincs' so any stories i love to here thank you.
