Tynemouth Road
I was born at 59 Tynemouth Road, Tottenham in 1949, does anyone remember us? My brother's name is Bruce Abbott and I had a sister called Pat,who sadly died in 1965. Upstairs to us was Robert Parmer and his brother, I think his name was Ian, who my brother went around with, I played with Jillian Bignall and Janet Delasale, we played out till it was dark in those days. There was an off-licence at the corner where would would get a packet of crisps for 4 old pennies. I remember the pea-soup fog as it would make my sister Pat ill as she had a bad chest. I would love to hear from anyone who lived in Tynemouth Road from 1949 to 1962 when we moved to Cheshunt. I went to the Green school and remember Miss Hildich, when she left Mr Wood was headmaster. My teacher was Miss Parker who was very nice. I can remember going to Southampton on the train with the school for the day. My friends at school were Vanessa Ringrose, Heather Brant and Barbara Perkins. I remember getting on the old horseshoe coach to go swimming once a week with the school, Spurs getting the double and watching the open top bus with the players holding the cups. Oh, how it has changed in Tottenham, it was such a nice place to live.
