Re: coronation street girls
Think it was Barnes St number 3 or 5. I was best mates with her sister whilst in infant school, we were joined at the hip. Went round there quite a lot to play, have tea etc. Mina was 2 years younger than us, and was our Grego's mate, but we moved into Accy when I was 8 so we all temporarily lost touch. Met up with my old buddy again at Moorhead, where she now teaches, and we still keep in touch.

Re: coronation street girls
OK Becki so lads have football and gals have soaps; is that true? Perhaps that is why they came up with Footballers Wives ha - kill two birds with one stone lol!

Re: coronation street girls
Yep that is correct - little football but a lot of other kinds of ball play,if you get my drift?lol
Further in the context of your quote;"It is lucky for politicians that people don't think!" to para-phrase Hitler.

I don't know lettie, but out of interest, she was engaged to my uncle Brian. They split up on a ferry on the Mersey River. She threw the ring over the Stern of the ferry. Brian was a Royal Navel Submariner; He was gutted about the whole thing. They stayed friends for a while until they both married and lost contact. Brian was a Church Lad and later lived up ozzy.

Re: coronation street girls
I seem to recall seeing Julia Haworth in coronation street being a baby sitter or something. She used to go St Christophers (year below me I think), she was in a CITV program at the time called 3-7-11.
