Mill Street

I was born at 22 Mill Street in 1941 and attended Fairy Street School from 1945-1951 and later Gallowflat from 1951-1955.

Christmas 2010

My daughter bought me the book 'Old Rutherglen' by Rhona Wilson. On page19 is the old Rhul cinema where I attended my first film. 'The Wizard of Oz'. I fell asleep, I was only 4. It is now compulsory viewing for my children and grandchildren.

Where I Used to Live

I used to live in Fettercaine Avenue and then moved to Jedworth Avenue, I there until 1985 and then moved to Cheltenham with my parents. I would like to know if anyone who lived in Jedwroth Avenue remembers me, I lived at number 9, and I also lived at 7 and 8 Fettercaine Avenue in Drumchapel.

Where I Used to Live

The last date was wrong. I lived in Fettercaine Avenue, 7 and 8, and then I moved to Jedworth Avenue, where I lived in number 9. I would like to know if anyone remembers me. I kne a few people who used to live there.

I Used to Live There And go to School

I used to live in Fettercairn and went to Drumrye Primary School, and then moved to Linkwood Drive with my aunt and uncle, and then went to live with my mum in Jedworth Avenue. I then moved to Cheltenham in 1985 with my mum and step dad.

II Would Like to Know if Any One Knew A Sean Flynn Who Lived in Talant Road

I would like to know if any one remembers a Sean Flynn who used to live in Talant Road as I used to go around with him and his mates with my mates. I was very upset when he passed away, it must now be about 23 years ago. I still think of him to this day, he was a very good friend of mine and I he will always be in my thoughts. I still cannot beleive that he is not with us today. I went to his funeral and it was so sad, so I hope that if anyone sees this they will remember him, as he was a nice guy.
