So glad i joined this site. Was browsing through some old posts last night especially the one about Rhyddings Park. A s i read through i noticed one member "ossygobbin" had a link to his web site with old photos of Oswaldtwistle and residents of Ossy.
As i was happily browsing the 900 + intresting photos a picture of my grandad suddenly appeared before me. I was amazed and delved a little more. Suddenly more pictures of my family were popping up, including my mum and dad. Boy did i giggle at them !
To cut a long story short, a picture of my grandmother that i had never seen before popped up. She was so beautiful in her youth. It was the first time i had seen a picture of my grandma since she passed away when i was 8 years old. It brought a few tears, but also a lovely warm feeling too.

If it wasnt for accyweb, i would never have seen the pictures ...thankyou.

....and thanks to Cousin Mike "ossygobbin" for hosting them.

So happy !
