Lots Of Good Memories
A Memory of Uxbridge.
Looking at these photos brings back happy memories. I lived in Cowley Road and went to Whitehall and Greenway schools.
In my older teens, I used to go to Burtons Dancehall - great groups and music there and the three cinemas. My friends and I used to all meet up at the Fairy Bell Restaurant on a Saturday afternoon - it sounds very tame now but we loved it. We always seemed to be doing something, never seemed to be in. We also used to go to the Rhythm and Blues (ex Serviceman's Club) in Cowley.
It is strange to hear that the police station is now a bar. I remember the record shop along the road from there - 3 singles for a £1 - those were the days. (1960 - 1969).
