Little Jimmy Clitheroe,lived in Preston.
Not far from Mick's Dad.
Hee Hee suppose thats Mick's claim to fame.
My Dad knew Little Jimmy Clitheroe.

 

[garinda]

He used to be on the radio, and if my memory serves me, looked a bit like Jimmy Krankie, the ageless schoolboy.

I remember that he was opening something at Oswaldtwistle Townhall in 1968, when I was three. I found him so scary at the time that I cried.
