That's fascinating to read Terry. I wonder how much Willows Lane has changed since then. I have an old photograph from early last century and it is quite recognisable in the area between Richmond Road and Bullough Park. Unfortunately it's scruffier looking now, my main complaint being against the refuse collectors who seem to drop at least one binload a week.

My Dad used to do that trick with the empty egg shells too so I can sympathise with you there, and my Mum told me how she and her sister used to get the tops off their parent's eggs. It looks like you did twice as well as them because they only got one egg top each!
