I remember NIgel, If I remember rightly his parents ran the Café on a roundabout. At Carshalton. His sister was going out with a trainee Doctor. We used to go around with ROBERT, We used to go to the WOODSTOCK , Tania and I Used to say we were Nigel's sisters. We used to be such good friends, why did we lose contact. Would love to hear from Nigel and Robert.
We lived at number 20 from the early 50's to 1969 when we moved down to Devon. It was a lovely street to live in with the magnificent beeches all along. Nice neighbours- the Radfords at number 16 and the Huttons at 22. We had a plot of land between us and number 18- Miss Vine- which was sold for building when we moved. As it was, it made a great football pitch but must have been a devil to keep up for my Dad. ...see more
