Hi, that was on Saville Rd and across from that was Jim's newspaper shop where I used to rush to buy The Green at 6.00 on Saturdays.Ska. Was there a long lost bookies across the road from you on St Heliers or was that on Savillle Rd. Had to often wait outside for my old man on the way to the ground but 40 or more years ago and the memory fades.
In the early 80s as a kid, I lived in the semi adjoining Owen's father, who was knocking on a bit by then. Owen used to park his vintage Rolls outside when visiting, which was usually on a Saturday - I used to see it parked there as I left the house to go to the match (which Owen obviously didn't go to).Early years in Kenilworth Gardens then moved to a house in Kirkham Avenue on the corner of Park Road. My neighbours opposite were an estate agent and his wife. They were called Owen and Vicky.. I wonder what became of them?
I hear Owen had a permanent semi.In the early 80s as a kid, I lived in the semi adjoining Owen's father, who was knocking on a bit by then.

Oh wow, what a small world!!!I can't remember Betty, but the 'nice Irish lady' at number 1 was my mum, who passed away in 1993. Or you might mean my sister, who is still there. Thanks for that memory.
