I was working in Coventry in a WMC in the early 70s when this chap came up to me and said 'tha coms fra lanci dunt thi lad', ya Accrington I said (as that name was on our vans) 'I come from Ossy mi sen'. It turned out that this guy used to sit next to my mother at St Marys in the 30s and he lived on Busk Meadow Street
