I'm really trying to open up my brain here Chrissie, I lived on Barnes Street 1965 >>> 1974, Surely, must know this family ? Whereabouts on Barnes Street did they live ? Can you remember ?

I'm trying to rack my brains too, I was born at home in Lower Barnes Street in 1961 & lived there till 1986 but the name doesn't ring a bell at all. When I first read your post I was thinking of the people who had the chippy on Barnes Square but then remembered that was the Orr family - sorry

Yea you`re thinking of Christine and Steven Orr, I wonder what happened to them?
I tihnk you might be a bit young to remember the Roes as they left for Blackpool in 1971

Gosh, sorry I cannot help you Chrissie, don't believe myself that I can't remember this family .. quite large weren't they !?

Knew loads of people on this street, but this lot completely escape my memory.

'Course I lived on the second block going down on the right and probably never crossed the road when going 'up' to the shops. :-)

Sorry to waste space on yer thread.

My in-laws lived for a while on Sparth Avenue (don't ask me for dates, haven't a clue

) think it was no. 67 .. end one anyway and overlooked the rec. was quite nice.

Thanks Alan, yes I know quite a few of those names, Jo Heyes used to hang around with us at the time when I knew Nigel Roe. I remember Satch Colllier from early days in the Albion and John Riddiough was one of the first lads in clayton to have long hair, I remember him making an entrance at the New Jerusalem club when I was about 10, he was a lot older than me, but I never forgot that hair

I used to go to Clayton youth club with John Riddiough, there was a Group that played there Tread Wheels & so on, fronted by Roy Taylor. The Bamber brothers, lived in the house by the Forts Arms bus stop, also Irene Boothman, Hollingrake sisters, Kathleen Jameson, was there a rag shop down Lower Barnes St.

Yes I remember Roy Taylor being the lead singer. I can recall one time when he, Barry Dickson and Pete Roe were singing `imagine im in love with you` at the bottom of our back one day. Strange how things stick in your head, lol.
I loved going to the New Jerusalem with my new orange pokadot skirt with sticky out paper underskirt on that me mum made for me. I was only about 10/11ish and I remember drinking loads of cidona pop and Im sure I got slightly ****ed off it.

I was a sick as a dog when I got home,lol
