Stoke Street Ladywood

Thanks.i think we lived in Stoke street 1951 till around 1957?.don't recall street no.but we were at bottom of yard no5 or6.next to a lovely refined couple and Mrs warrender.mrs warrender and her son or husband worked in the market.lovely salt of the earth people.they had a brand new radiogram.and invited us into their house every week.
We went to St peters school for a little while,and mass at St Michael's polish church some weeks.
At the bottom of the yard was a high wall.and the man had pigeons.i remember Cottam shop,and Marie's shop.and lil.lil borrowed lots of things from us.she was a character
Thanks for listening to the ramblings.
