hi ANDY ARMSTRONG, GLAD TO HEAR FROM YOU. I WENT DOWN MONTGOMERIE TERRACE YESTERDAY,FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MANY YEARS,AND IT BROUGHT BACK MEMORIES OF THE HAPPY DAYS WE SPENT THERE. WE THEN WENT UP TO THE CEMETERY AND GOT THE USUAL SHOCK AT SEEING WHO HAVE DIED RECENTLY. I,M STILL WORKING AWAY- SELLING PRINTING AND CALENDARS, BUT IT'S A HARD JOB, AS MOST PEOPLE CAN PRINT THEIR OWN REQUIREMENTS NOW.TWO OF MY GRANDSONS ARE DOING WELL,DARREN IS TRAINING TO BE A PILOT,-IN SPAIN. CRAIG PACKED IN HIS HIGH-CALIBRE JOB WITH TANNOY TO BECOME A MUSIC COMPOSER !!!.HE'S DOING OK. ERIC IS ALWAYS ABROAD WORKING,HE HAS THREE GRAND-CHILDREN NOW. TA-TA THE NOO.JOHN.

Memories, Nostalgia & History

History doesn't have to be in black & white

Your memory of a local character or a school photo from the last ten years can be just as interesting as wars and Victorians.
