Gallons
A Memory of Lower Town.
I too, worked at Gallons, Dixon Lane as a grocery delivery boy. I was a small boy and remember the bike was very heavy, and that it was a hill in all directions. I certainly earnt my 12/6d a week and some broken biscuits, but the tips were great. Mr & Mrs Boyes managed the shop. I broke my wrist at school once, and we delivered the groceries in Mr Boyes' three wheeler car. I went to school at Lower Wortley Primary. Our stomping grounds were the Lynwoods, the 'Rec', Walkers Field, Farnley Engine Sheds, Sykes Wood. Happy times.
