Memories of The Shopping Centre c1965, Flixton
Barrets Butchers
I used to work at Barrets butchers in about 1982 with my mate Pete Bennett (r.i.p.). A blonde girl called Sharon used to come past everyday on her rollerblades - fond memories.
Flixton & local memories
Read and share memories of Flixton and Lancashire inspired by Frith photos.
USA Forces Hospital WW2
I can remember going for walks on the pathway between the Flixton(?) Golf Course and this hospital and seeing the local gals 'visiting' the 'Yanks', as we kids called them, through the fence. If we knew the girl in question it was an easy task to get 'gum' on the promise of not telling what we saw. We were rotten kids in those days, but why not, we got bombed for years during the Second World War because of the proximity of Trafford Park.
Growing up in Flixton
I learnt to swim at Flixton baths whilst a pupil at Wellacre Infants/Juniors 1954-1959.
Saturday Matinee
I always attended the 'Saturday matinees' during the late 50's at the Curzon cinema. Happy childhood days!
Trafford Healthcare NHS Trust
My employer - does not look as nice today.
