Grand Parents

I never knew my dad's parents, as they had both died by the time i was a baby. I enjoyed my time there as i often had friends calling in. I also had friends in the neighbouring streets [Wardle st, Muriel St & Oswald Terrace.] I quite often spent time with my grandparents, especially granddad Ernie, as i lived within 30 yards of them for 20 years. I lived in the bottom bungalow on the front with my elder brother Frank & our mam & dad [Margaret & Frank] until i was 11. After that, we did a part exchange with Mr & Mrs Revee Lumley, so they moved into the bungalow & we moved into the Stag Inn. We moved away from the village in November 1981.
