Smaller world still, I used to have a place on Middlewood Road, and also used Grahams tyres on Leppings lane.

I still miss the nights out on West Street, normally winding up in Josephine's in Barkers Pool.

Oh happy days

Hi Brian

So where about did you have your business on Middelwood road? Just wonder if our paths ever crossed at some time sounds like you and me are about the same age and frequented the same places.
Thanks Clive

Hi Clive, I was working for a firm specialising in compressors on Darnall Lane, I actually lived in a flat above a shop where Middlewood Road meets Catch Bar Lane.

This was all about a half a lifetime ago.......1994.

Still I do have fond memories of my time in Steel City

Hi Brian

Thanks Clive
