Collyhurst

A Memory of Harpurhey.

Loved being brought up there, moved into the Collyhurst scene from Langley Middleton, soon got to know Ralph Spencer, the Heaneys and Youngs, also Mcewans. I went to Albert Memorial School. I lived on Thornton Street. What a place to be brought up in - or toughened up in. The Sellstroms were quickly accepted into the Colyhurst scene, then we all were a very close knit crew. I loved supping in the Manhattan pub (under age, we all did them days) had a drink and went home lively - not like now days, drink then want to kill someone? Collyhurst holds a big part of my time in life and I respect you all who lived there. If you remember me LOS Sellstrom, brothers John, Don, Chris, Anthony, Alan, Roy, sisters Sue, Mary, Margaret - all Sellstroms. love to hear from you xxx
