Blast From The Past.

Old Cottage 1906
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Wow, did that ever shake me to the core. The names Richardson and Fairminer, Long and a few others sprang to mind as fellow pupils at the local Primary School. In those days I lived in Worsley Road. I can remember fishing the Basingstoke canal at Frimley Green and seeing the last barge go by which I beleive was scuttled just before the flight of locks. I have lived and worked in the area for a number of years but now retired, live just outside Basingstoke. Any past friends and aquaintances are welcome to contact me. My email is chipieman@msn.com and I look forword to reading more.

RE: RE: Blast From The Past.

I am new to the site and finding it very useful. I was born in Farnborough. My parents were Ken Gower from Farnborough and Eileen Richardson who lived in Frimley Green. I visited my Grandmother Daisy in Frimley Green many times.
Both parents have passed on now and I am interested in filling in some gaps if anyone can assist please.

Her siblings were John, Doug, Ted, Marina, Shirley, Jean and Christine
