Hi I have just posted a memory on this website as I used to live at no 14 Avontar road 1953 to 1967
I also lived in the flats opposite the woods in Daiglen Drive, and I was friends with Jimmy Munday. We moved into a prefab in Viola Crescent, but my mum still stayed friends with Jimmys mum. She would do sign with her. I lost contact with Jimmy but when I started work with the Post Office I meet Jimmy again as he also worked for the Post Office in London.
Oh hi nice to hear from you is your mums name Evleen I used to remember going to the prefabs with my Mum when I was little and if I remember she had one son which obviously is you? Yes Jimmy did work at The post Office I believe was at St Paul's. It's nice to hear from you and your memories of my so missed brother Jim .
